If x/y is the additive inverse of c/d , then x/y - c/d = 0. Is the given statement true or false

Solution:

Additive inverse means when the given number is added to it, gives the result as 0.

If x/y is the additive inverse of c/d then x/y + c/d = 0

But the given statement is x/y - c/d = 0.

Hence, it is false.

✦ Try This: If 2/3 is the additive inverse of c/d , then c/d is____.

Additive inverse means when the given number is added to it, gives the result as 0.

If 2/3 is the additive inverse of c/d then 2/3 + c/d = 0

c/d = -2/3
