For this problem you'll get a number, find it's opposite and sum 96 to it. The equation used will be:

x = -x + 96

Where:

x = a number

-x = the opposite of x

So:

x = -x + 96

x + x = 96

2x = 96

x = 96 / 2

x = 48


And now, if you do the sum to prove your answer:

48 - 96 = -48


Answer:

\boxed{\bf~48~is~the~number}



Hope it helped,

Solve by the addition method: 2x-5y=18 ,3x+4y=4
alexgriva [62]
2 x - 5 y = 18  / * 4
3 x + 4 y = 4   / * 5  ( we will use the addition method )
--------------------------
 8 x - 20 y = 72
+
15 x + 20 y = 20
----------------------- 
23 x = 92
x = 92 : 23
x = 4
8 - 5 y = 18
- 5 y = 18 - 8
- 5 y = 10
y = 10  : ( - 5 ) 
y = - 2
Answer:
( x, y ) = ( 4, - 2 )

vazorg [7]

Answer:

O C. 0

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the sum of 15 and its additive inverse?

In Mathematics, the additive inverse of a number is defined as the number that when it is added to a specific number equals 0

From the above question, the additive of 15 = -15

Therefore, the sum of 15 and its additive inverse is calculated as:

15 + -15

= 15 - 15

= 0

Therefore, Option C is the correct option
