Answer:
-0.25

Explanation:

The given function :
f(x)=(1)/(4)x

To find the value of the given function at -5, we need to substitute the value of -5 in the given function, we get


f(-5)=(1)/(4)*-5\\\\\Riaghtarrow\ f(-5)=(-5)/(4)\\\\\Riaghtarrow\ f(-5)=-1(1)/(4)

Hence, the value of
f(x)=(1)/(4)x at
x =-5=-1(1)/(4)\ or \ -0.25
