Answer:
d = kr

Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the depth (d) varies directly with the amount of rain (r).
This means that as the amount of rain increases, the depth increases and vice-versa.
The depth would depend on r multiplied by a constant of variation (k)

Translating this into equation, we would get the following:
d = kr

Hope this helps :)
