Question

Which of the following statements shows the inverse property of addition? a + (- a ) = 0 a + 0 = a 1 a = a a + a = 2 a

Answer 1

I believe this is the answer a + (- a ) = 0

Answer 2

a + ( -a) = 0 shows that Inverse property of addition .

Explanation:

Given : options .'

To find : Which of the following statements shows the inverse property of addition.

Solution : We have given

Inverse property : The sum of a number and its negative is always zero.

Example : 5 + (−5) = 0.

Then a + ( -a) = 0 .

Therefore, a + ( -a) = 0 shows that Inverse property of addition .
