Question

Find the inverse with respect to addition of -6​

Answer 1

Given:

The number is -6.

To find:

The inverse with respect to addition of the given number.

Solution:

We need to find the additive inverse of -6, to get the inverse with respect to addition of -6.

We know that, the sum of a number and its additive inverse is 0.

Let the additive inverse of -6 be x. Then,

$-6+x=0$

Adding 6 on both sides, we get

$-6+x+6=0+6$

$x=6$

Therefore, the inverse with respect to addition of -6 is 6.
