Aline has a slope of -1/4 and passes through point (-5/4,1) what is the equation of the line? a. y= -1/4x+ 21/16 b. y= -1/4x+11/16 c. y=-1/4x-1/4 d. y= -1/4x-5/4

The correct answer is B. y = -1/4x + 11/16

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, we must plug in the slope and the point into point-slope form. We can then solve for slope intercept form.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 1 = -1/4(x - -5/4)

y - 1 = -1/4(x + 5/4)

y - 1 = -1/4x - 5/16

y = -1/4x + 11/16

answer: city needs 2.4 inches of rainfall more to match the record of 40 inches.

step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

total annual rainfall a city record = 40 inches

this year, total rainfall recorded = 37.6 inches

number of inches of rainfall   is needed to match the record of 40 inches is given by

hence, city needs 2.4 inches of rainfall more to match the record of 40 inches.
