During a snowstorm, Ai Mi tracked the amount of snow on the ground. When the storm began, there were 3 inches of snow on the ground. Snow fell at a constant rate of 1 inch per hour until another 6 inches had fallen. The storm then stopped for 7 hours and then started again at a constant rate of 3 inches per hour for the next 4 hours. As soon as the storm stopped again, the sun came out and melted the snow for the next 3 hours at a constant rate of 5 inches per hour. Make a graph showing the inches of snow on the ground over time using the data that Ai Mi collected.

The comparative and the superlative
Comparative adjectives
Comparative adjectives are used to compare differences between the two objects they modify (larger, smaller, faster, higher). They are used in sentences where two nouns are compared, in this pattern:
Noun (subject) + verb + comparative adjective + than + noun (object).
The second item of comparison can be omitted if it is clear from the context (final example below).
