Is the additive inverse of a number always negative ?explain 12points

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The additive inverse of a number is not always negative.

What is a number system?

The number system is a way to represent or express numbers.

A decimal number is a very common number that we use frequently.

Since the decimal number system employs ten digits from 0 to 9, it has a base of 10.

Any of the multiple sets of symbols and the guidelines for utilizing them to represent numbers are included in the Number System.

The additive inverse of an number is a number by which addition the resultant becomes zero.

For example, the additive inverse of 3 is -3

Now,

The additive inverse of -4 will be 4 which is positive, not negative.

The additive inverse of 0 is 0 which is not negative.

Hence "The additive inverse of a number is not always negative".

Answer 2
Answer:

No it isn’t

In mathematics, the additive inverse of a number a is the number that, when added to a, yields zero. ... For a real number, it reverses its sign: the opposite to a positive number is negative, and the opposite to a negative number is positive. Zero is the additive inverse of itself.

A shipping crate contains 576 boxes of cereal. you open the top of the crate and you count 12 boxes across the front and 6 along a side. How many layers of cereal boxes are in the crate?

Answers

There are 8 layers in the crate!
Our volume is 576 units, or cereal boxes. 576 = 12 × 6 × UNKNOWN.
We can find our unknown number by dividing:
576 ÷ 12 ÷ 6 = 8 layers!
I hope this explained it! 
ok so there is 12 boxes by 6 boxes per layer 
so that is 72 boxes per layer 
the crate has 576 boxes 
therefore 
576/72 
and the answer is 
8 layers
i hope it helped you :-}

Answers

For this one use the slope formula, (y2-y1)/x2-x1)

Just to have them in one place, here are the ordered pairs

(-1,-2) (2,2)

You can do these in any order, here is how I did the problem:


(2--2)/2--1)

Your y intercepts are 2 and -2

The x are 2 and -1

Now reduce.  Since you are subtracting a negative, it turns into a positive.

(2+2)/(2+1)

4/3

There is our slope: rise 4 run 3 or as a fraction 4/3.

Hope this helps!

Does someone know how to do this I don’t understand it

Answers

Ok so basically you square root the "Lengths " numbers at the top of the page. Using these answers ( the period/seconds numbers) you plot a graph
So, square root of 1.00 is 1

Square root of 1.96 is 1.4

Square root of 3.24 is 1.8

Square root of 4.00 is 2

Square root is 4.84 is 2.2

Square root of 6.25 is 2.5

Square root of 7.29 is 2.7

Square root of 7.84 is 2.8

Square root of 9.00 is 3

Then, you plot the numbers on the y axis. Also, did your teacher give you a specific graph to draw (such as a bar graph, column graph,line graph, etc?) because I'm not sure what graph you should draw. Hope this helps ;)
