Question
The graph of the function \( y = x^2 \) is shown below in blue. Write a formula for the graph of \( g(x) \), shown in red, which is the result of applying a sequence of transformations to the graph of \( y = x^2 \).

**Graph Explanation:**

1. **Blue Parabola**: Represents the function \( y = x^2 \). It is a typical upward-opening parabola centered at the origin (0,0).

2. **Red Parabola**: Represents the function \( g(x) \), which is a transformation of the blue parabola. It is also an upward-opening parabola but shifted to the right. 

**Transformation Details:**

- The red parabola appears to be the result of a horizontal shift of 2 units to the right of the blue parabola.

**Conclusion:**

To find the formula for \( g(x) \), apply a horizontal shift to the function \( y = x^2 \). The transformation results in the function \( g(x) = (x - 2)^2 \).

\[ g(x) = \]
