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.
