The multiplicative inverse means, what do I multiply my number by to get an answer of 1? ex: The multiplicative inverse of 5 is 1/5. 5 * (1/5) = 1 If your number is a fraction to begin with, flip it over. ex: The mult. inverse of 22/7 is 7/22 (22/7)*(7/22) = 1
-5
To write the inverse, you replace negatives with positives (and vice versa). Thus, for -3x + 5, it would be 3x - 5.
The question is confusing. The additive inverse of a real number is the same number with the sign changed. For example, the additive inverse of -5 is +5 (or simply 5); the additive inverse of 7 (which is the same as +7) is -7.
First convert it into an improper fraction: 5 3/7 becomes 38/7. This is clear because "5" is simply "35/7" (do the math yourself) and 35/7 + 3/7 = 38/7. Additive inverse means "negative." Thus, the "additive inverse" of 38/7 is -38/7. This is true because 38/7 added to -38/7 is 0. That is the definition of an additive inverse. Multiplicative inverse means "reciprocal." Thus, the "multiplicative inverse" of 38/7 is 7/38. This is true because 38/7 multiplied by 7/38 is 266/266, or 1. That is the definition of multiplicative inverse.

Swap the numerator and denominator. For example, the multiplicative inverse of 5/7 is 7/5
No.. if you write 7/2 as -7/2, then that's additive inverse property.
For example, 5 is the "inverse" of -5. And -7 is the "inverse" for 7.
5 + (-5) = 0 -1.33 + 1.33 = 0 Inverse property of addition: For real numbers, a + = 0.
It is 7 since 5+7 = 12 which is equivalent to 0 on the clock.
-5
38/7 x 7/38 = 1 = multiplicative inverse 38/7 + -38/7 = 0 = additive inverse

Additive inverse of a number a is that number which on addition with a gives 0.7 is additive inverse of -7.The property shown is additive inverse property because the addition yields 0.
