Question

1. the number 0 (for the real numbers) distributive property 2. a(b + c) = ab + ac or a(b - c) = ab - ac literal equation 3. an equation containing more than one variable multiplicative inverse 4. the number 1 (for the real numbers) additive identity 5. the reciprocal of a number; if x is a number other than zero, then 1/x is the multiplicative inverse; the product of a number and its multiplicative inverse is 1 multiplicative identity

Answer 1

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

Answer 2

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.
