1) An airplane departs an airport and climbs to an altitude of 2,600 feet. The plane climbs 300 feet more to an

altitude 2,900 feet. Which number is the additive inverse of the plane's height?

A) −2,900

Explanation:

−2,900

plane's altitude = 2900 feet

Therefore, the additive inverse of the plane's altitude is −2,900. The sum of a number and its additive inverse

is 0.

2,900 + (−2,900) = 0


Hope this help you :D
