Answer 1

In a bread recipe, the number of cups of flour used should be a non-negative integer. Let's evaluate the options:

• 2: valid (non-negative integer)
• 3: valid (non-negative integer)
• 4: valid (non-negative integer)
• 4: valid (non-negative integer, repeated)
• 7: valid (non-negative integer)
• −3: invalid (negative number)
• square root of 3: invalid (not an integer)

So, the valid numbers that could be used to specify how many cups of flour should be used in a bread recipe are 2, 3, 4 (both instances), and 7.
