Where does "jesus" talk about petitions?
Jesus out lines Prayer in Luke 11.
Here are 3 pages of Old and New testament examples where prayer and petition/supplication have been seperated.

As such supplication/petition was common knoweledge/second nature. Therefore Jesus did not need to teach it then. Today we have blurred the lines and most people do not know the difference.
just incase you are looking to confuse yourself with splitting hairs:
