Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
they say by noon 4 inches of rain has fallen, then the say that it's falling at 1/4 inch per hour
f(x) = 1/4x +4
where x is in hours, and f(x) represents the linear graph of the amount of rain that has fallen after noon :)
so by 2:30 or 2.5 hours.... then
f(2.5) = 1/4x +4
y = 1/4 (2.5) +4 ( i moved to the y b/c now there is an answer)
y =[tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] + 4
y =4[tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] inches of rain
