Part 1
Evaluate the expression for 6x − x2 for x = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. Then, drag and drop each number into the correct box to complete the table.

x 0 1 2 3 4 5 6
6x − x2



Part 2 out of 2
Complete the explanation for the pattern(s) you see.

The value of 6x − x2
decreases
from 0 at x = 0 to 9 at x = 3, then
increases
back to 0 at x = 6. Also, the values are
different
for x = 0 and 6, for x = 1 and 5, and for x = 2 and 4.
