David:

For a start you can try the following:

Using ContourPlot

ContourPlot[(x - 2)^2 + 2(y - 3)^2 - 6, {x, -1, 5}, {y, -1, 5},
  Contours -> {0}, ContourShading -> False, ContourSmoothing -> 5]

Or using ImplicitPlot

<< Graphics`ImplicitPlot`

ImplicitPlot[(x - 2)^2 + 2(y - 3)^2 == 6, {x, -1, 5}]

ImplicitPlot[x^3y + y^3 == 9, {x, -4, 4}]
