Solution
The correct options are
A negatives
B additive inverses
C opposites
The number to the left of zero would be one less than zero, i.e., 0−1=−1
to the left of −1, we would have −1−1=−2 and so on...
−1,−2,−3... are negative numbers.
The additive inverse of a number x is the number that, when added to x, yields zero.
for example, 2+(−2)=0
so −2 is said to be the additive inverse of 2.
