To determine the correct inequality sign to replace the question mark between 7 and -2, we compare the two numbers directly:
- Since 7 is a positive number and -2 is a negative number, it is clear that 7 is greater than -2. Therefore, the inequality that correctly represents the relationship between 7 and -2 is [tex]\( 7 > -2 \)[/tex].
So, the correct answer is that [tex]\( 7 > -2 \)[/tex].
