Question Evaluate $y = x^{2} - 1$ for $x = -2, -1, 0, 1, 2$. Plot the $(x, y)$ pairs and graph the function.

Studdy Solution
Connect the points with a smooth curve to represent the function $y = x^2 - 1$, which is a parabola opening upwards.
The graph of the function has been plotted with the evaluated ordered pairs.
