You know two lines y=ax+b and y=mx+n that are perpendicular, so we have the product a*m=-1

+ This line is perpendicular to y=13x-5, so it has equation: y=-1/13x+b
+ And it passes through the point (3;1), so we have x=3, y=1. So 1=-1/13 *3+b
and b= 1+3/13= 16/13
And we have y=-1/13x+16/13

Which of the following could be the function graphed?

Tpy6a [65]

Answer: The answer is $(d)~f(x)=\dfrac{237x}{421x-515}.$

Step-by-step explanation: We are given four different functions of the variable 'x' and a graph. We are told to select one of the four options that which function can be graphed as the graph given in the question.

To check, we start plotting the functions one by one on a graph paper. We see that the graph of first three functions do not match with the given graph, but the graph of the fourth function given by

$(d)~f(x)=\dfrac{237x}{421x-515}$
