I believe that the answer to this question is -a+b, as an additive inverse is supposed to make the equation equal to zero when you add the inverse and its equation together. That means that when you add -a and a, you get zero, and -b and b is zero as well, so this would be the most logical explanation to your question.

If that's a + b, the additive inverse is -a - b
