An inverse, without any qualification, is taken to be the multiplicative inverse. is

The inverse of a number, x (x not 0), is 1 divided by x. Any number multiplied by its inverse must be equal to 1.

There is also an additive inverse. For any number y, the additive inverse is -y. And the sum of the two must always be 0.
