Question

Select the postulate that is illustrated for the real numbers 5+(-5)=0

Answer 1

Answer:

This is the Addition Inverse postulate.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided real number 5+(-5)=0

We need to determine the postulate that is illustrated for the real numbers 5+(-5)=0.

The additive inverse of the number "x" is the number that produces zero when added to "x". Also known as the opposite number.

For example: x+(-x)=0

Where x is any real number and -x is the opposite of x.

Now consider the provided number.

5+(-5)=0

Here the sum or 5 and -5 is 0.

Thus, this is the Addition Inverse postulate.  

Answer 2

In this question , we have to find the postulate that is illustrated for the real numbers

$5+(-5) = 0$

The postulate is Additive inverse postulate which states that

$a+ (-a) =0$

Where a is the real number and -a is the opposite of a. It states that , if opposite of a number is added with the number, the result is 0 .
