Assuming you use column a for x and column b for column y, type your x values
and then in b2 type: =a2*a2+2*a2+1 and copy down for as many x values as you have. Select the data in columns a & b and choose line chart from the chart options (click on the chart icon on the standard tool bar for chart options).

Better to use an XY (Scatter) chart type, not a Line chart type.
