Final answer:

The average change in the depth of snow over the 4-day period is 0.21875 inches per day, calculated by adding the daily changes and dividing by the number of days.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average change in the depth of the snow during the 4-day period given the depths as -(1/8), -(1/2), (3/4), (3/4) can be calculated by summing these values and then dividing by the number of days. Here is the step-by-step calculation:

  1. Add the changes together: -(1/8) + -(1/2) + (3/4) + (3/4) = -0.125 - 0.5 + 0.75 + 0.75 = 0.875
  2. Since there are 4 days, divide the total by 4 to find the average: 0.875 / 4 = 0.21875

The average change in the depth of snow per day over this period is 0.21875 inches.
