Idenify pairs of Additive and Multiplictive Inverses.



WHAT in the world are additive and multiplicative inverses???

:(

1 answer

if A is a number, its additive inverse is B such that A + B = 0

A's multiplicative inverse is B such that A * B = 1

All real numbers have exactly one additive inverse.

All real numbers except 0 have exactly one multiplicative inverse.
