Question
Example of an additive inverse is _______.
- – 3 + 2 = - 1
- 4 + 4 = 8
- – 7 + 7 = 0
- – 9 + 2 = -7
Hint:
Additive inverses are those numbers such that when they are added we get zero as the result.
The correct answer is: – 7 + 7 = 0
-7+7=0 is the additive inverse. Hence, option c is the correct answer.
Two numbers are said to additive inverse only when they are added we get the number zero.
Here, when we add -7 and 7, we get the result as zero. Thus, they are additive inverses.
