Problem

Amanda Reckonwith draws five circles with radii $1, 2, 3, 4$ and $5$. Then for each circle she plots the point $(C,A)$, where $C$ is its circumference and $A$ is its area. Which of the following could be her graph?

$\textbf{(A)}$ [asy] size(75); pair A= (1.5,2) , B= (3,6) , C= (4.5,8) , D= (6,6) , E= (7.5,2) ; draw((0,-1)--(0,16)); draw((-1,0)--(16,0)); dot(A^^B^^C^^D^^E); label("$A$", (0,8), W); label("$C$", (8,0), S);[/asy]

$\textbf{(B)}$ [asy] size(75); pair A= (1.5,9) , B= (3,6) , C= (4.5,6) , D= (6,9) , E= (7.5,15) ; draw((0,-1)--(0,16)); draw((-1,0)--(16,0)); dot(A^^B^^C^^D^^E); label("$A$", (0,8), W); label("$C$", (8,0), S);[/asy]

$\textbf{(C)}$ [asy] size(75); pair A= (1.5,2) , B= (3,6) , C= (4.5,8) , D= (6,6) , E= (7.5,2) ; draw((0,-1)--(0,16)); draw((-1,0)--(16,0)); dot(A^^B^^C^^D^^E); label("$A$", (0,8), W); label("$C$", (8,0), S);[/asy]

$\textbf{(D)}$ [asy] size(75); pair A= (1.5,2) , B= (3,5) , C= (4.5,8) , D= (6,11) , E= (7.5,14) ; draw((0,-1)--(0,16)); draw((-1,0)--(16,0)); dot(A^^B^^C^^D^^E); label("$A$", (0,8), W); label("$C$", (8,0), S);[/asy]

$\textbf{(E)}$ [asy] size(75); pair A= (1.5,15) , B= (3,10) , C= (4.5,6) , D= (6,3) , E= (7.5,1) ; draw((0,-1)--(0,16)); draw((-1,0)--(16,0)); dot(A^^B^^C^^D^^E); label("$A$", (0,8), W); label("$C$", (8,0), S);[/asy]
