Question 716003: How do you graph y^2-8y+18=x? I got it into x=(y-4)^2+2 by completing the square. The vertex is (2,4) according to my work.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! If you are asking if your answer is correct, you can also try testing that point with your found equation. Yes. That point is the vertex, (2,4). If you want to know if you processed the given equation correctly, although you showed no work in your posting, completing the square will truly give you the equation which you found. YES, is what I would tell you.
Also, try comparing to what would happen to a simple graph of  .
x=(y-whatever)^2, x=y^2+something, just use variations from the simple form to test with.
