Answer 1

I think the opposite of number 0 would be zero since zero is neither negativee or positive.

Answer 2

What is the opposite of zero -- infinity

What is the opposite of nothing --- everything.

Answer 3

I would say infinity.

Zero means nothing, no minus and no addition. It's just kind of... stuck where it is.

Infinity would be an addition or a subtraction that goes on forever.

Yours was a cool question!

Answer 4

it would be still 0 it wouldnt make sense -0 there is no way.. we are on those lessons right now... so yeah its still 0..Hope this helps

Answer 5

i would have to agree with ∞ being the opposite, zero is nothing, therefore the opposite will be everything, and we symbolize everything as ∞.

Answer 6

Answer 7

Infinite ∞

Answer 8

Answer 9

Negative 0, but it's still equal to Positive 0, so that's why most number lines don't have both on there. lol

Answer 10

0 is a neutral number it has no positive and it has no negative

Hope that helps!

Answer 11

i don't think there is one. its a negative and a positive number, so it couldn't have one
