You can put this solution on YOUR website!
graph y=%28x-2%29%5E2-3
-----------
Pick values for x and find y.
Plot the points
Draw a curve thru them.
-----
x = 0, y = 1 --> (0,1)
x = 2, y = -3 --> (2,-3)
x = 2.2, y = -2.96 --> (2.2,-2.96)
etc
Make as many point as you need.
Use Excel to make the points
