You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y = x^2 - 8
Vertex is (0,-8)
...
graph%28300%2C200%2C-10%2C10%2C-10%2C10%2Cx%5E2-8%29
...
In the equation y+=+x%5E2-8,
the -8 is a vertical shift downward on the y axis,
as seen from the below graph of y = x^2
graph%28300%2C200%2C-10%2C10%2C-10%2C10%2Cx%5E2%29
