Zero
When we add an integer to its additive inverse, the result is always zero. The additive inverse of an integer ( n ) is ( -n ), so ( n + (-n) = 0 ). This property holds true for all integers, demonstrating the fundamental concept of additive identity in mathematics.
The additive inverse of an integer ( x ) is the integer that, when added to ( x ), results in zero. This integer is (-x). For example, the additive inverse of 5 is -5, and the additive inverse of -3 is 3.
to subtract an integer, add its opposite or additive inverse.
Yes.
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.
to subtract an integer, add its opposite or additive inverse.
The additive inverse for a number is its negative value. The sum of an integer and its additive inverse is zero. For the example (5), the additive inverse would be (-5).
Two numbers, which when added together result in zero, are called each other's additive inverse. That is, for two given numbers x and y, if x + y = 0, then y is the additive inverse of x and x is the additive inverse of y.
Yes.
Additive Inverse
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.
Zero
Change its sign.
The additive inverse of 100 is -100.
The additive inverse is just another way of saying the "opposite" of an integer*. The way to find the additive inverse of an integer is by looking at the negative sign (-) or the positive sign (+) or no sign.Example 1a. The opposite of 5 is -5b. The opposite of -6 is 6c. The opposite of -|-12| is -12*An integer is any whole number*.:Letter "c" is just an example of absolute value. It has nothing to do with the procedure of finding the additive inverse:.
The additive inverse of -34 is the number you need to add to -34 to get 0 i.e. 34.
A negative integer is a whole number that is smaller than zero. It is the additive inverse of a positive integer.
