Question
The additive inverse of `(-7)/19` is ______.
Options
`(-7)/19`
`7/19`
`19/7`
`(-19)/7`
Solution
The additive inverse of `(-7)/19` is `underlinebb(7/19)`.
Explanation:
For any number a and b additive inverse should be zero.
That is, a + b = 0
Let a = `(-7)/19` and b be the additive inverse of a.
Then, b – `7/19` = 0
b = `7/19`
Therefore, the additive inverse of `(-7)/19` will be `7/19`.
