Solution

Winds always blow from high-pressure areas to low-pressure areas.

Explanation: Atmospheric pressure is dependent on temperature. Cold air is associated with high pressure and warm air with low pressure. Because of the difference in pressure, the air starts moving from a high-pressure area to a low-pressure area. This horizontal motion of the air is called wind.
