Mr equation is correct f(x) translated to the right 2 unit(s) this is what the correct graph looks like.

I assume that you meant the graph of
y= x^(2). That is a parabola, it is shaped like the letter U.

The transformation that is performed by the given rule, shifts the parabola 2 units to the right. The vertex would be at (2, 0).
