To find the additive inverse of a number, we take its opposite by changing the sign.
The additive inverse of 26.54 is -26.54.
Now we can find the difference between 8.76 and -26.54:
8.76 - (-26.54) = 8.76 + 26.54 = 35.3
Use the additive inverse to find 8.76−26.54. (1 Point)

That’s wrong
I apologize for the mistake. Let's correct it:
To find the additive inverse of a number, we change its sign.
The additive inverse of 26.54 is -26.54.
Now we can find the difference between 8.76 and -26.54:
8.76 - (-26.54) = 8.76 + 26.54 = 35.30
