Answer:
Correct answer: C. -12
Explanation:
The additive inverse represents the number that would add to 0.If you went down to -12, that is 12 numbers under zero. If you were to add that +12, you would move back up 12 numbers, and that would leave you at the number 0.
Example:
12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
now go back -12
12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
now add a +12
12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
I am not sure if that makes enough since, I'm just trying to show how you can get it on a number line but since there is no actual number line tool, I had to do it that way.
Sorry if I'm wrong but I hope this helps!
Have a good day <3
