oobleck frist of all what kinda name is that it sounds stupid second of all why do you have to be so rude maybe their keyboard have that symbol or they could find just because you did dosent make you cool...
Does being mean make you feel better about yourself...
well, you know that the additive inverse is what you have to add to reach the additive identity. So, what is the identity?
The additive identity is the number which you can add without changing anything. zero
So, for any number N, its additive inverse is -N
That is, N + (-N) = 0
So, what do you have to add to 38 to get a sum of zero?
BTW, absolute value is better written as |-38| not !-38!
I'm sure your keyboard has that symbol ...
That not an answer choose Anna
NVM yes it is sorry
D. -(-(-(-38)))
Because if you keep negating the negative signs, it's like a never-ending clown car with negative signs, so the additive inverse of 38 is just more negativity!
The additive inverse of a number is the number that, when added to the original number, gives a sum of zero. In this case, we are looking for the additive inverse of 38.
To find the additive inverse, we need to change the sign of the number. Hence, the additive inverse of 38 is the opposite sign of 38, which is -38.
So, the correct answer is A. -38.
