Answer 2

Given,

Two numbers whose sum is 0 are called ‘opposite’ numbers.

Given number = -2x

To find,

Opposite number (according to given logic) of the given number.

Solution,

We can simply solve this mathematical problem by using the following mathematical process.

Let, the opposite number = y

According to the logic given in the question :

-2x + y = 0

Or, y = 0+2x

Or, y = 2x

So, opposite number is = 2x

(This will be considered as the final result. And, if we add this opposite number to the given number, then the result will come zero, as per our requirement.)

Hence, the opposite number will be 2x
