I'll do the first three values to get you started....


x = -2:


y=x%5E2-x-2 Start with the given equation.


y=%28-2%29%5E2--2-2 Plug in x=-2.


y=%28-2%29%5E2%2B2-2 Simplify.


y=4%2B2-2 Square -2 to get 4.


y=4 Combine like terms.


------------------------------------------------------------


x = -1:


y=x%5E2-x-2 Start with the given equation.


y=%28-1%29%5E2--1-2 Plug in x=-1.


y=%28-1%29%5E2%2B1-2 Simplify.


y=1%2B1-2 Square -1 to get 1.


y=0 Combine like terms.


------------------------------------------------------------


x = 0:


y=x%5E2-x-2 Start with the given equation.


y=%280%29%5E2-0-2 Plug in x=0.


y=0-0-2 Square 0 to get 0.


y=-2 Combine like terms.
