Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
The domain of the function is all real numbers greater than 1, as the argument of the logarithm must be positive. The function is decreasing and asymptotic to the x-axis as x approaches 1 from above. The graph also has a vertical asymptote at x=1. Therefore, option D is the correct graph.
