Question

Identify the additive inverse for each number or expression.

$5-6y$

Short answer

The required answer is $6y-5$.

Step-by-step solution

Step 1- Determine the approach that can be used

The additive inverse for the provided expression will be the same expression with opposite sign.

– Determine the additive inverse 

Write the provided expression with negative sign.

$\left(-1\right)\left(5-6y\right)=6y-5$

Step 3- Make the conclusion

Determine the addition of provided expression and obtained expression.

$\left(5-6y\right)+\left(6y-5\right)=0$

As the addition of provided expression and additive inverse result in 0 so obtained expression is additive inverse.
