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.

How can you use addition of integers to subtract integers?
Subtracting an integer is the same as adding the additive inverse. In symbols: a - b = a + (-b), where "-b" is the additive inverse (the opposite) of b.
What thought process would you use when trying to find the additive or multiplication inverse of a number or expression?
Additive inverse: change all signs. Multiplicative inverse: flip it over.
What is the inverse for numbers under addition?
A number and its additive inverse add up to zero. If a number has no sign, add a "-" in front of it to get its additive inverse. The additive inverse of 5 is -5. The additive inverse of x is -x. If a number has a minus sign, take it away to get its additive inverse. The additive inverse of -10 is 10. The additive inverse of -y is y.
