Answer

Does not make sense.

Work Step by Step

The graph of f(x) is obtained by vertically stretching the graph of $ f_{1}(x)=2^{x}$ by a factor 3. The asymptote remains $ y=0$, because to the far left, values of y-coordinates, $ y=f_{1}(x)$, are near zero. Multiplying them with 3, they are still nearing zero, not three. Does not make sense.
