Answer:

Yes, it does

Step-by-step explanation:

When we add a number to its additive inverse, the resulting value is zero

The first case is running up 10 flights which we consider positive

then he runs down 10 flights of stairs; this we can consider as - 10

So adding this together, we have -10 + 10 to give zero

What this mean is that we have added a number to its additive inverse
