Answer:

the number 0 = additive identity

a(b+c) = ab+ac = the distributive property

an equation containing more than one variable = literal equation

the number 1 = multiplicative identity

the reciprocal of a number = multiplicative inverse

I confirmed it's true

  1. the number 0 — additive identity
  2. a(b+c) = ab+ac — the distributive property
  3. an equation containing more than one variable — literal equation
  4. the number 1 — multiplicative identity
  5. the reciprocal of a number — multiplicative inverse

If x ≠ 0, then 1/x is its multiplicative inverse — true.

The product of a number and its multiplicative inverse is 1 — true.
