Answer:


y=x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A parent function is s the function that generalizes this type of function. In other words, it is the most common and simplest form of that type of function.

In this case we have the function:


y=x^2-5

Type of function: quadratic function

And the parent function for quadratic functions is the following:


y=x^2

which is the simplest quadratic equation.

Thus, the answer is: y=x^2
