Explanation:

Greetings !

Definition:-

In mathematics, the additive inverse of a number a is the number that, when added to a, yields zero. This number is also known as the opposite, sign change, and negation.

For example, the additive inverse of 7 is −7, because 7 + (−7) = 0, and the additive inverse of −0.3 is 0.3, because −0.3 + 0.3 = 0. Similarly, the additive inverse of a − b is −(a − b) which can be simplified to b − a. The additive inverse of 2x − 3 is 3 − 2x, because 2x − 3 + 3 − 2x = 0.

Hope it helps!!!
