Question

Write the additive inverse of each of the following.
-5/9

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 5/9

- So, the multiplicative inverse of -5/9is 9/5

Answer 2

Answer:

Additive inverse of -$\frac{5}{9}$ is $\frac{5}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Additive inverse of any number is the number, which when added will result in identity element(addition) , 0

ie., if a+b = 0

then a is the additive inverse of b and viceversa.

here we need to find the additive inverse of -5/9. let it be x

=> -$\frac{5}{9}$ + x = 0

=> x = $\frac{5}{9}$

so, additive inverse of -$\frac{5}{9}$ is $\frac{5}{9}$
