your steps and properties look good.
Not sure about your initial mention of additive inverse. That appears nowhere here.
a + (-a) = 0
uses additive inverse
Can someone help me with the following please
What property is the following:
a(b + 0) additive inverse property - this was confirmed from previous equation
= a x b + a x 0 Distributive. (I think)
= a x b + 0. Multiplication property of zero (I think)
= a x b. Additive identity property
Thank you
