Question

find the sum of the additive inverse and multiplicative inverse of 8 ​

Answer 1

Answer:

the inverse of a number is such a number which on performing its respective function will give the identity

Step-by-step explanation:additive inverse of 8 is -8

and the multiplicative inverse of 8 = 1/8

sum of the multiplicative inverse and additive inverse of 8 = - 8 + 1/8

                                                                                                      =(-8*8+ 1)/8

                                                                                                       =(-64+1)/8

                                                                                                       = -63/8

                                                                                                       = -7.875

Answer 2

Answer:

-63/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Additive inverse of 8 is -8

multiplicative inverse of 8 is 1/8

A.T.Q

additive inverse + multiplicative inverse

-8+1/8

-63/8
