Understanding Inverse Operations and Number Lines

The video tutorial explains the concept of inverse operations, focusing on the inverse of adding seven. It introduces the idea of 'inverse' as the opposite and uses a number line to demonstrate how adding seven moves to the right. The tutorial then explains that the opposite of this action is subtracting seven, which moves to the left on the number line.

What does the term 'inverse' mean in the context of mathematical operations?

• An unrelated operation

• The opposite operation

• A different operation

• The same operation

When adding seven on a number line, in which direction do you move?

• Upwards

• To the left

• To the right

• Downwards

How many steps do you move when adding seven on a number line?

• Five steps

• Six steps

• Eight steps

• Seven steps

What is the inverse operation of adding seven?

• Subtracting seven

• Adding seven

• Multiplying by seven

• Dividing by seven

If you start at a point and subtract seven, in which direction do you move on the number line?

• To the right

• To the left

• Upwards

• Downwards
