Width (w)ft Area (A) ft2
10 900
20 1,600
30 2,100

Which quadratic equation gives the area A of the rectangle in square feet given its width in w feet?

A. A(w)= -w to the power of 2+200w
B. A(w)= -w to the power of 2+100w
C. A(w)= w to the power of 2+40w
D. A(w)= w to the power of 2+90w

Checking for each option

Option A: [tex]A(w) = -w^2+200w[/tex]

Substitute w = 10 and check if we'd get 900 as the answer
[tex]A(10) = -(10)^2+200(10) = -100+2000 = 1900[/tex]

Option B: [tex]A(w) = -w^2+100w[/tex]
Substitute w = 10 and check if we'd get 900 as the answer
[tex]A(10)=-(10)^2+100(10)=-100+1000=900[/tex]

Option C: [tex]A(w)=w^2+40w[/tex]
Substitute  w = 10 and check if we'd get 900 as the answer
[tex]A(10) = 10^2+40(10)=100+400=500[/tex]

Option D: [tex]A(w) = w^2+90w[/tex]
Substitue w = 10 and check if we'd get 900 as the answer
[tex]A(10)=10^2+90(10) = 100+900=1000[/tex]

Answer: Option B
