In Exercise given below, describe the graph of the equation as either a circle or a parabola with a horizontal axis of symmetry. Then, determine two functions, designated by $y_1$ and $y_2$, such that their union will give the graph of the given equation. Finally, graph the equation in the given viewing window.
