Question

Subtracting a number is the same as adding its additive inverse. For which elevation do we need to find the additive inverse?

Answer 1

Answer: I need to find the additive inverse of the number being su tracked. That number is -9.6. The additive inverse of -9.6 is 9.6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

Additive inverse can be defined as adding a number with the opposite or the negative of that number to equal zero. The additive inverse of 1 is (-1), the additive inverse of 2 is (-2) and so on.

Example: 5 + (-5) = 0

In this example, (-5) is the additive inverse.

You can then take additive inverse one step when finding the additive inverse when subtracting rational numbers.

Example: 7 - 4 = 7 + (-4)

3 = 3

When finding the inverse, it is important to keep in mind that what you do to one side, you must do the opposite to another. In the example above, because you subtracted a positive four on one side, you are going to add a negative four to the other. This will make the equation equal on both sides.
