### Problem Statement

**Given the parent function** \( f(x) = x^2 \), **which of the functions listed below would be an equivalent function that has been translated right 3 and up 2?**

1. \( g(x) = (x - 3)^2 - 2 \)

2. \( g(x) = (x + 3)^2 + 2 \)

3. \( g(x) = (x - 3)^2 + 2 \)

4. \( g(x) = (x + 3)^2 - 2 \)

### Explanation
When translating the parent function \( f(x) = x^2 \):

- **Right by 3 units**: We replace \( x \) with \( (x - 3) \) in the function.
- **Up by 2 units**: We add 2 to the function.

Combining these transformations, we get the function:
\[ g(x) = (x - 3)^2 + 2 \]

Thus, the correct answer is:
- **Option 3: \( g(x) = (x - 3)^2 + 2 \)**
