Write the additive and the multiplicative inverses of the following.
−1
Additive inverse, -1
Multiplication inverse, 1
Explanation:- When a number is added to its additive inverse, the result is zero. When a number is multiplied to its multiplicative inverse, the result is 1.
Solving for additive inverse:-
(-1) + x = 0
(add 1 to both sides)
X = 1
Solving for the multiplicative inverse:-
(-1)
X = 1
(dividing both sides by(-1))
X = 1
