Choose a range of x-values.
Calculate the y values.
Plot the x,y pairs and connect them with a smooth curve.
x=-3,y=%28-3%29%5E2%2B2=9%2B2=11
x=-2,y=%28-2%29%5E2%2B2=4%2B2=6
x=-1,y=%28-1%29%5E2%2B2=1%2B2=3
x=0,y=%280%29%5E2%2B2=0%2B2=2
x=1,y=%281%29%5E2%2B2=1%2B2=3
x=2,y=%282%29%5E2%2B2=4%2B2=6
x=3,y=%283%29%5E2%2B2=9%2B2=11
