Answer:

18 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Sophie can peel all potatoes in 45 minutes, in 1 minute she can peel:

  • 1/45 of all the potatoes

Simon can peel all potatoes in 30 minutes, in 1 minute he can peel:

  • 1/30 of all the potatoes

Together, in 1 minute they can peel:

  • 1/45+1/30= 2/90+3/90= 5/90= 1/18 of all the potatoes

To peel all the potatoes they need:

  • 1 ÷ 1/18= 1 × 18= 18 minutes

So it will take them 18 minutes to peel all the potatoes

<h3>Answer:   -a > -b</h3>

Explanation:

Let's go over an example.

We'll have a = 1 and b = 7 which makes a < b true. Feel free to pick your own favorite pair of numbers such that b is larger than 'a'.

The corresponding opposites are:  -a = -1 and -b = -7

The relationship flips because the opposites of each number are flipped. So instead of saying -a < -b, we have -a > -b

Sure enough, -1 > -7 is a true statement. Use a number line to see this. I recommend a vertical number line.

In short, going from a < b to -a > -b means we flip the signs of each term, and we flip the inequality sign as well.
