If x and y are both positive, and x is greater than y (ie...x is further to the right on the number line), then if I slap a negative sign on x and y, x must be less than y (ie...further left on the number line).

if you have

and multiply both sides by -1, you'll get

(remember, multiplying by a negative number changes the direction of inequality signs..)
