What is the additive inverse of a negative number?
Additive Inverse would be the number that when added to a given number creates a total of zero. The additive inverse for any negative number would be the positive counterpart. The additive inverse of -5 is 5. The additive inverse of -2 is 2, since -2 + 2 = 0.
What is the opposite of the absolute value of negative 8?
The additive opposite is negative 8 (-8) (because the absolute value of negative 8 is 8, or positive 8).
What is the additive inverse and the conjunction of NEGATIVE 2 plus 3i?
-2 + 3iThe additive inverse: -(-2 + 3i) = 2 - 3iThe conjugate: -2 - 3i
How is absoulute value different from positive and negative integers?
The absolute value is always non-negative. So, the absolute values of zero and positive integers are the same as the numbers. However, the absolute values of negative integers are their additive inverses or additive opposites (or positive equivalents).Thus, for example, abs(-3) = +3
Is the additive inverse of any rational number is negative?
No. The additive inverse of zero or a negative rational number is not negative.
