What is the inverse of negative 3?

The inverse of negative 3, when considering additive inverse, is positive 3, because adding the two together yields zero. If considering multiplicative inverse, it would be (-\frac{1}{3}), as multiplying negative 3 by (-\frac{1}{3}) results in -1. The context determines which type of inverse is being referred to.

How do you find the inverse of the slope of the line?

Write the equation of the line in the standrad form: y = mx + c The slope of this line is m The inverse of the slope is then 1/m. Note, that for a line perpendicular to the first, you need the negative inverse, not just the inverse. And the negative inverse of m is -1/m.

What word means the same as the additive inverse of a number?

The "additive inverse" is essentially the NEGATIVE of a number. The term is used to avoid confusion when taking the negative of a negative integer. The additive inverse of any number n is (-1)n.


What is negative 6 minus 1?

Negative 6 minus 1 is equal to negative 7. When subtracting a positive number from a negative number, you essentially add the additive inverse of the positive number to the negative number. In this case, the additive inverse of 1 is -1, so -6 + (-1) = -7.
