Question

Write true or false for the given statement:

The additive identity of an integer is always positive.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

The additive identity for integers is zero as adding $0$ to any number retains the same result.
For any integer, $a$ we will have,

$a+0=a=0+a$

But zero is neither positive nor negative.

Hence, the given statement is false.
