What is the quadratic function of best fit?  Price, x Buyers, B $2030$3050$4065$6075$8072$10050$11025\begin{array}{c|l}\text { Price, } x & \text { Buyers, B } \\\hline \$ 20 & 30 \\\$ 30 & 50 \\\$ 40 & 65 \\\$ 60 & 75 \\\$ 80 & 72 \\\$ 100 & 50 \\\$ 110 & 25\end{array}


A) B(x) =0.243x2+3.115x22.13\mathrm { B } ( \mathrm { x } ) = - 0.243 \mathrm { x } ^ { 2 } + 3.115 \mathrm { x } - 22.13
B) B(x) =0.0243x23.115x22.13\mathrm { B } ( \mathrm { x } ) = 0.0243 \mathrm { x } ^ { 2 } - 3.115 \mathrm { x } - 22.13
C) B(x) =0.0243x2+3.115x22.13B ( x ) = - 0.0243 x ^ { 2 } + 3.115 x - 22.13
D) B(x) =0.0243x2+3.115x+22.13\mathrm { B } ( \mathrm { x } ) = - 0.0243 \mathrm { x } ^ { 2 } + 3.115 \mathrm { x } + 22.13
