Yur answer is C

f(x)=~(13-x)
The domain of an expression is all real numbers except for the regions where the expression is undefined. This can occur where the denominator equals 0, a square root is less than 0, or a logarithm is less than or equal to 0. All of these are undefined and therefore are not part of the domain.
(-x+13)<0
Solve the equation to find where the original expression is undefined.
x>13
The domain of the rational expression is all real numbers except where the expression is undefined.
x<=13_(-I,13]
