The reciprocal (multiplicative inverse) of -3 is -1/3.The reciprocal (multiplicative inverse) of -3 is -1/3.The reciprocal (multiplicative inverse) of -3 is -1/3.The reciprocal (multiplicative inverse) of -3 is -1/3.
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.
never a negative number * * * * * ... true if, by opposite, you mean the additive inverse. However, the multplicative inverse is also an opposite. And the multiplicative inverse of a negative number is always negative.
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).
It is the inverse of x to the positive value of that power. So x-a = 1/xa or (1/x)a
The multiplicative inverse is the negative of the reciprocal of the positive value. Thus the multiplicative inverse of -7 is -1/7.
1/-1
-9; the multiplicative inverse: -1/9
-2 (negative two) The multiplicative inverse (reciprocal) for a number x is 1/x.

Negative 5.
-1/7
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.
The reciprocal (multiplicative inverse) of -3 is -1/3.The reciprocal (multiplicative inverse) of -3 is -1/3.The reciprocal (multiplicative inverse) of -3 is -1/3.The reciprocal (multiplicative inverse) of -3 is -1/3.
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.
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.
To get the multiplicative inverse (a.k.a., the reciprocal) of a number, you need to divide 1 by that number - in this case, 1 divided by (-10).
