8.2 + (–8.2) = 0

Inverse Property of Addition

Addition Property of 0

Inverse Property of Multiplication

Identity Property of Addition

Answer 1

Inverse Property of Addition

Answer 2

Option (a) is correct.

The given equation 8.2 + (–8.2) = 0 illustrates the inverse property of addition.

Explanation:

Given : 8.2 + (–8.2) = 0

We have to Name the property the equation illustrates.

• Inverse Property of Addition states that for any number 'a' the inverse of number is negative of number 'a' such that
  `a+(-a)=0`

• Addition property of zero states that any number is added to 0 then the result will be number itself that is
  `a+0=a`

• Inverse property of multiplication states when we multiply a number 'a' with its inverse we get the identity 1 that is
  `a* (1)/(a)=1`

• Identity property of addition states that any number is added to 0 then the result will be number itself that is
  `a+0=a`

Thus, the given equation 8.2 + (–8.2) = 0 illustrates the inverse property of addition.
