Which graph represents the function ?

Question illustration
A
On a coordinate plane, a hyperbola is shown. One curve opens up and to the right in quadrant 1, and the other curve opens down and to the left in quadrant 3. A vertical asymptote is at x = 1, and the horizontal asymptote is at y = negative 4.

A pharmacist has 80 milliliters of a 30% saline solution. The graph shows the percentage concentration after adding x milliliters of a 10% saline solution. Which statement is true about the graph of the function?

Question illustration
A
The vertical asymptote x = 30 means the concentration will always be less than 30%.
B
The vertical asymptote x = 10 means the volume will always be greater than 10 milliliters.
C
The y-intercept means the concentration will remain 30% if no solution is added.
D
The y-intercept means the concentration will always be less than 30%.
