To model the situation where the rain begins slowly, then gets much heavier, and finally remains steady, you'd want a graph that shows a gradual increase in the rate of rain (starting slowly, then increasing), followed by a plateau where the rate of rain stays steady.

Without seeing the actual graphs (A, B, C, D), it is difficult to definitively choose which one best represents the scenario. However, look for a graph that shows:

  1. A gradual slope at the start (indicating slow rain),
  2. A sharper increase (indicating heavier rain), and
  3. A flat line (indicating steady rain) after the increase.

Choose the graph that best represents this pattern. If you can describe the graphs, I might be able to help you narrow it down further!
