Question 283760: graph x^2-8x+2

graph of y = x^2 - 8x + 2 is shown below:

graph%28400%2C400%2C-20%2C20%2C-20%2C20%2Cx%5E2+-+8x+%2B+2%29

To plot the points on this graph, all you do is take values of x and then solve for y assuming that value of x replaces x in the equation.

example:

when x = 4, y = 4^2 - 8*4 + 2 = 16 - 32 + 2 = -16 + 2 = -14.
