Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

7/8 is the additive inverse of -7/8 and -7/8 is the additive inverse of 7/8. the property used is negative or additive inverse

Step-by-step explanation:

for a rational number a/b, we have a/b+ (-a/b) = (-a/b)+ a/b =0. So, a/b is the additive inverse of -a/b and -a/b is the additive inverse of a/b

Therefore, 7/8 is the negative or additive inverse of -7/8 and -7/8 is the additive inverse of 7/8

so for the rational number 7/8, we have,

$\frac{7}{8} + \frac{-7}{8} = \frac{-7}{8} +\frac{7}{8} = 0$

hence the property used here is negative or additive inverse
