Answer:

-3 is the additive inverse of 3.

Explanation:

Two numbers are additive inverses if they add to give a sum of zero. 3 and -3 are additive inverses since 3 + (-3) = 0. -3 is the additive inverse of 3.

What is the formula of additive inverse?

The additive inverse of a number is what you add to a number to create the sum of zero. So in other words, the additive inverse of x is another number, y, as long as the sum of x + y equals zero. For example, the additive inverse of the positive number 5 is -5.
