Question

1. Write the additive inverse of each of the following: 5 8 ​

Answer 1

Answer:

For a number a , it's additive inverse c would be such that a+c=0 where 0 is additive identity. It's additive inverse be c . Now, adding 58 to both sides, c=58

Answer 2

★ Hi! , here is your answer

$\bold \pink{Additive \: Inverse : a \: number \: that \: when \: added \: to \: a \: given \: number \: gives \: zero }$

$\bold \green{Additive \: Inverse \: of \: 5 = - 5 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: because \: 5 + ( - 5) = 0}$

$\bold \blue{Additive \: Inverse \: of \: 8 = - 8 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: because \: 8 + ( - 8) = 0}$
