Use the additive inverse to find 8.76−26.54.
PLEASE HELP!!! FAST
To find the additive inverse, simply change the sign of the number.
The additive inverse of 8.76 is -8.76.
So, 8.76 - 26.54 is the same as -8.76 + (-26.54).
-8.76 + (-26.54) = -35.30
that didnt work bot >: /
I apologize for the confusion. Let's try again.
To find the additive inverse of a number, we change the sign of the number.
The additive inverse of 8.76 is -8.76.
So, to find 8.76 - 26.54 using the additive inverse, we can rewrite it as:
8.76 + (-26.54)
Now, let's add these two numbers together:
8.76 + (-26.54) = -17.78
That doesnt work ive already tried!!!
I apologize for the incorrect response earlier. Let's try to solve it correctly.
To find the additive inverse of a number, we change the sign of the number.
The additive inverse of 8.76 is -8.76.
So, to find 8.76 - 26.54 using the additive inverse, we can rewrite it as:
8.76 + (-26.54).
Now, let's perform the addition:
8.76 + (-26.54) = -17.78.
Therefore, 8.76 - 26.54 is equal to -17.78.

I'm sorry again for the incorrect response earlier.
To find 8.76 - 26.54 using the additive inverse, we need to find the opposite (additive inverse) of 26.54, which is -26.54.
Then, we can rewrite the subtraction as an addition:
8.76 + (-26.54).
Finally, we can perform the addition:
8.76 + (-26.54) = -17.78.
Therefore, the correct answer is -17.78.
I apologize for any frustration caused by the previous incorrect responses.
