Substitute the x values in the equation and solve to find values of y.
How would I do that?
if x = 0, then y = 0^2 + (-3) = 0^2 - 3 = ?

Do the same with the other x values.
The answer is:
A. -3, -2, 1, 6

Trust me, that is the correct answer!

Beta fish is correct
Can you please explain about the parabola function
Certainly! The given function is a quadratic function, specifically a parabola. The general form of a quadratic function is y = ax^2 + bx + c, where a, b, and c are constants.

In this case, the given function is y = x^2 + (-3). We can see that the coefficient of x^2 is 1, the coefficient of x is 0, and the constant term is -3.

To complete the table for this function, we substitute the given x-values into the equation and solve for y:

For x = 0:
y = 0^2 + (-3) = 0 + (-3) = -3

For x = 1:
y = 1^2 + (-3) = 1 + (-3) = -2

For x = 2:
y = 2^2 + (-3) = 4 + (-3) = 1

For x = 3:
y = 3^2 + (-3) = 9 + (-3) = 6

Therefore, the completed table is:

x | y
0 | -3
1 | -2
2 | 1
3 | 6

So, the correct answer is:
A. -3, -2, 1, 6
