A reciprocal is basically a fraction flipped upside down. So your fraction is -9/7, flipped it would be 7/-9 or -7/9. It doesn't matter where the negative sign is because the result will be a negative either way.

Just turn the number upside down to get -7/9.

Reciprocal is just the "fancy" way math people talk. It simply means turn it upside down.
In this case it is 7/-9 There are other kinds of reciprocals, but this will do for now! I may add that this simple concept can be quite useful!

The reciprocal of a number multiplied by the original number will be = 1.
So in this case the reciprocal would be -7/9.

-(7/9)
The reciprocal is merely "the complement" or "opposite". In fractions, you simply "flip" the fraction, making the numerator the denominator and vice versa.
Hope I helped!
