The relationship between x, the amount of increase, and A, the area of the rectangle represented by the increase, is quadratic.Which graph could represent the area of each rectangle in terms of the change in the length and width?

A
A graph shows change in dimensions (units) labeled 1 to 10 on the horizontal axis and area (square units) on the vertical axis. A straight line decreases from 0 to 9 units.
Option A
B
A graph shows change in dimensions (units) labeled 1 to 10 on the horizontal axis and area (square units) on the vertical axis. A line decreases from 0 to 3 units, increases from 3 to 6 seconds, and decreases from 6 to 9 seconds.

Julia finds that the data in the table can be modeled by the function y = 5(4)x.

Question illustration
A
Julia is correct because the distance starts at 5 feet and increases by a factor of 4.
B
Julia is correct because the function is true for (0, 5) and (1, 20).
C
Julia is not correct because the function is not true for the point (2, 80).
D
Julia is not correct because the distance does not increase by a constant factor each minute.
