13) (-4) x 0 =
O -4​

Answer 1

Answer:

The pairs of opposite numbers are also called as pairs of additive inverse number .

Answer 2

Pairs of opposite numbers are also called pairs of additive inverse numbers.

Given,

Pairs of opposite numbers.

To Find,

What are the pairs of opposite numbers called?

Solution,

Pairs of opposite numbers mean if we have x then its opposite is -x.

So, x and -x are the additive inverses of one another.

The additive inverse of a number means an opposite number that is added to the given number and gives its identity element (0).

For example:-

Let 2 be a number then its opposite is -2. And we know that -2 is the additive inverse of 2.

For example:-

Let -78 be a number then its opposite is 78. And we know that 78 is the additive inverse of -78.

Hence, pairs of opposite numbers are also called pairs of additive inverse numbers.
