We are given the following function


y=x^2-1

1st Step: Calculate the (X, Y) values

For x = -3:


y=x^2-1=(-3)^2-1=9-1=8
(-3,8)

For x = -2:


y=x^2-1=(-2)^2-1=4-1=3
(-2,3)

For x = -1:


y=x^2-1=(-1)^2-1=1-1=0
(-1,0)

For x = 0:


y=x^2-1=(0)^2-1=0-1=-1
(0,-1)

For x = 1:


y=x^2-1=(1)^2-1=1-1=0
(1,0)

For x = 2:


y=x^2-1=(-2)^2-1=4-1=3
(2,3)

For x = 3:


y=x^2-1=(3)^2-1=9-1=8
(3,8)

2nd Step: Construct a table of (X, Y) values

Therefore, we have now multiple (X, Y) points for the given function.

Bonus: Plot the given points
