Answer

Graph of $g$ is the graph of $f$ shifted down by $1$ unit.

Work Step by Step

The given functions are $\Rightarrow f(x)=x^2$ and $g(x)=x^2-1$ Let the $x-$coordinates be $-2,-1,0,1,2$. Calculate the corresponding $y-$ coordinates. All calculations are shown in the image file. For each of the two functions connect all points with a smooth curve. Notice that the graph of $g$ is obtained by shifting the graph of $f$ down by $1$ unit.
