Scientist have been keeping track of the size of a glacier in the middle of the ocean. When they first began to track it, it measured 450 meters in width and it is melting at a rate of 4.5 meters per year.
If the width,  $w,$  is a function of the time,  $t,$  in years,
which of the following equations best describes this situation?

•  $w=450t-4.5$  

•  $w=450-4.5t$  

•  $w=450+4.5t$  

•  $w=-450+4.5t$
