When the number is positive, its opposite is less than the number.

9 ==> -9 . . . . . . less
72 ==> -72 . . . . less
324 ==> -324 . . less


When the number is negative, its opposite is greater than the number.

-8 ==> 8 . . . . . . greater
-3/4 ==> 3/4 . . . greater
-429 ==> 429 . . greater .

We've seen that the opposite can be less, and it can also be greater.
I guess that means that it's sometimes greater.

If its a negative number then yes the opposite will be greater because it will be a positive number

For example the opposite of -2 is +2 so therefore the opposite is greater

Answer:

we conclude that:

If 4x - 6≠4, then 2x–5≠5 is the contrapositive of a conditional statement if 2x -5=5, then 4x-6=14.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the contrapositive of a conditional statement of the form "If p then q" is termed as "If ~q then ~p".

In other words, it is symbolically represented as:

' ~q ~p is the contrapositive of p q '

For example, the contrapositive of "If it is a rainy day, then they suspend the match" is "If they do not suspend the match, then it won't be a rainy day."

Given

p: 2x -5=5

q: 4x-6=14

As the contrapositive of a conditional statement of the form "If p then q" is termed as "If ~q then ~p

Thus, we conclude that:

If 4x - 6≠4, then 2x–5≠5 is the contrapositive of a conditional statement if 2x -5=5, then 4x-6=14.
