What is the opposite of any number The opposite of any number?
When x is not zero, it can be (x + 1/x).
What is the sum of an integer and its opposite?
If by "opposite" you mean its additive inverse, the answer is 0. If by "opposite" you mean its multiplicative inverse, for the number x, it will be (x+1/x).
Which equation would best help solve this problem Find a number that is 38 less than its opposite?
It depends on what is meant by "opposite". For the additive opposite: x = -x - 38 For the multiplicative opposite: x = 1/x - 38
How is the opposite of a number different from the reciprocal of a number?
"opposite" is defined in the context of some operation. While the opposite of a number in the context of multiplication is the reciprocal, there are other possible contexts: The opposite of a number, x, in the context of addition, is its negative, -x. The opposite of a number, x, in the context of its logarithm, is its exponentiation, -x.
What does the word vertical and opposite angles mean?
vertical angles are when you have an "x" made by intersecting lines and the angles in it are vertical angles. Opposite angles are when you have the x, the angles are on directly opposite sides. --->x<--- those are opposite of each other. therefore they are opposite angles. the arrows are pointing at them
