Answer:

x=1\frac{3}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a recipe required flour=5\frac{1}{2}=\frac{11}{2}

Lorenzo has flour=3\frac{3}{4}=\frac{15}{4}

We have to find an equation to find the additional amount of flour Lorenzo needs to make the recipe.

Let x be the additional amount of flour  that is required to make the recipe

According to question

x+\frac{15}{4}=\frac{11}{2}

x=\frac{11}{2}-\frac{15}{4}

Using subtraction property of equality

x=\frac{22-15}{4}

x=\frac{7}{4}=1\frac{3}{4}

Hence, Lorenzo needs additional amount of flour to make recipe=1\frac{3}{4}

How do the expressions 72 divided and -72divided by (-9) and compare when they are evaluated?
padilas [110]

Complete question is;

How do the expressions 72 divided by 9 and -72 divided by (-9) compare when they are evaluated?

A. They have different values and are different signs.

B. They have different values but are the same sign.

C. They have the same value but are different signs.

D. They have the same value and the same sign

Answer:

D. They have the same value and the same sign

Step-by-step explanation:

For 72 divided by 9,it is;

72/9 = 8

Usually when we don't have any sign in front of a number, it is said to be positive.

Thus, the answer can be expressed as; +8

Also, when -72 is divided by (-9), it is;

-72/-9

The negative signs will cancel out to give; 8

Similar to the first division, since no sign is attached to 8,it is said to be positive as +8.

This means both divisions yield same values and same signs
