Answer 1

`2(1)/(4)`

Explanation:

Operations With Fractions

Simplify the following operations:

`\displaystyle -5(1)/(4)-\left(-7(1)/(2)\right)`

Convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions:

`\displaystyle 5(1)/(4)= 5+(1)/(4)=(21)/(4)`

`\displaystyle 7(1)/(2)=7+(1)/(2)=(15)/(2)`

Substituting:

`\displaystyle -5(1)/(4)-\left(-7(1)/(2)\right)=-(21)/(4)-\left(-(15)/(2)\right)`

Simplifying:

`\displaystyle -5(1)/(4)-\left(-7(1)/(2)\right)=-(21)/(4)+(15)/(2)`

Amplifying the second fraction by 2:

`\displaystyle -5(1)/(4)-\left(-7(1)/(2)\right)=-(21)/(4)+(30)/(4)`

Adding both fractions:

`\displaystyle -5(1)/(4)-\left(-7(1)/(2)\right)=(9)/(4)=2(1)/(4)`

Answer:
`\mathbf{2(1)/(4)}`
