Here are my workings for this question.

The downward-going graph should not have the equation y = k (3^x) because the graph of this equation is upsloping and fully above the y-axis for positive values of k and downsloping and fully below the y-axis for negative values of k.

A correct equation for such curves is y = k (3^-x).
