Hey there! I'm happy to help!

The additive inverse of a number is one that has its sign switched. If you put a - before a number, the sign switches. We put a - before -5, so its sign switches. -5's additive inverse is 5, so this 18+5, giving us 23.

The additive inverse of -5 is +5, so 18 - (-5)=23.

Have a wonderful day! :D

Find the distance between points P(1, 2) and Q(4, 8) to the nearest tenth. 11.2 5 6.7 9
bekas [8.4K]
Distance = sqrt (x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2
(1,2)...x1 and y1
(4,8)...x2 and y2
now we sub
distance = sqrt (4 - 1)^2 + (8 - 2)^2
distance = sqrt (3^2 + 6^2)
distance = sqrt (9 + 36)
distance = sqrt (45)
distance = 6.7 <===
