gravitationnal field between two objets = k.m1.m2/d² 
none of the above
the graph is something like that

The gravitational force between two masses is proportional to

                               (mass-1) x (mass-2) / (the distance between them)-squared

Do you see (distance-squared) in the denominator there ?

That steers you straight to the function [ y proportional to 1/x² ] ... in the middle.
