Andre sets up a rain gauge to measure rainfall in his back yard. On Tuesday, it rains off and on all day.
  • He starts at 10 a.m. with an empty gauge when it starts to rain.
  • Two hours later, he checks, and the gauge has 2 cm of water in it.
  • It starts raining even harder, and at 4 p.m., the rain stops, so Andre checks the rain gauge and finds it has 10 cm of water in it.
  • While checking it, he accidentally knocks the rain gauge over and spills most of the water, leaving only 3 cm of water in the rain gauge.
  • When he checks for the last time at 5 p.m., there is no change.

Which of the two graphs could represent Andre’s story?(Multiple Choice)
