Filling Glasses

If we were to fill a glass with water at a constant rate (for example, 1 cubic inch per minute), we could graph the height of the water in the glass as time goes by.

Suppose we fill the three glasses below in such a manner. Match up each glass with the graph that best describes the height of the water in the glass over time.
