Answer:


y = {x}^(2) - 2

Explanation:

Find a Rule means write a function for the graph. The graph is shaped like a U so the graph will be a quadratic, so the graph must have a term


{x}^(2)

in it. We are given the vertex of the function. We can use vertex formula


y = (x - h) {}^(2) + k

where h is the x value of the vertex and k is the y value of the vertex.


y = (x - 0) {}^(2) - 2


y = {x}^(2) - 2

So the rule is


{x}^(2) - 2
