Answer:

B). 4 + 7i = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there was already 4 inches of snow, the first term (4) is correct. Adding 7i is also correct because the problem states that it snowed at a rate of i inches per hour for 7 hours. All of it being equal to 25 is correct because the problem states that there was a total of 25 inches of snow.

Hope this helps!
