Additive inverse--

The additive inverse of a number is a quantity which when added to the number gives the additive identity.

( Additive identity is a value which is when added to any number gives the resultant as the same number.

We know that additive identity is always zero.

Because when zero is added to any quantity it gives the resultant the same quantity)

Let "a" be the additive inverse of -5

This means that:

-5+a=0

i.e.
