0. By the definition of "additive inverse", the sum of ANY number and its additive inverse must be 0.
Two integers which sum to zero (e.g. 3 and -3) are additive inverses of each other. All pairs of additive inverses sum to 0 and all pairs of integers which sum to 0 are additive inverses.
An additive operation is an operation which produces the sum of two operands.
It is zero, by definition of additive inverse!
The additive inverse is the sum of two numbers that will equal zero. The additive inverse of -18 is 18.
0. By the definition of "additive inverse", the sum of ANY number and its additive inverse must be 0.
The sum is zero.
Two integers which sum to zero (e.g. 3 and -3) are additive inverses of each other. All pairs of additive inverses sum to 0 and all pairs of integers which sum to 0 are additive inverses.
An additive operation is an operation which produces the sum of two operands.
The additive inverse for a number is its negative value. The sum of an integer and its additive inverse is zero. For the example (5), the additive inverse would be (-5).
Number + additive inverse of number = 0, by definition (the additive inverse of a number is that number, which when added to the original number, results in a sum of 0) Number + additive inverse of number = 0, by definition (the additive inverse of a number is that number, which when added to the original number, results in a sum of 0)
It is zero, by definition of additive inverse!
The additive inverse is the sum of two numbers that will equal zero. The additive inverse of -18 is 18.
The additive inverse of 41 is -41. An additive inverse is the number that will make the sum equal zero.
Sum
I assume you mean the additive inverse. The sum of any number and its additive inverse is zero. For example, 7 + (-7) = 0.
If the opposite is meant to be the additive opposite and not the multiplicative opposite, then their sum is zero. The reason is that is what defines an additive opposite!
