Question
- (a) complete the table of values for $y = x^2 + x$.\
\
| $x$ | $-3$ | $-2$ | $-1$ | $0$ | $1$ | $2$ | $3$ | \ |
| $y$ | $6$ | $2$ | $0$ | $6$ | \ |
(2)\
\
(b) on the grid, draw the graph of $y = x^2 + x$.\
\
grid with x-axis from -3 to 3 and y-axis from -12 to 12, with grid lines.\

Part (a)
Step1: For \( x = -1 \)
Substitute \( x = -1 \) into \( y = x^2 + x \).
\( y = (-1)^2 + (-1) = 1 - 1 = 0 \)
Step2: For \( x = 1 \)
Substitute \( x = 1 \) into \( y = x^2 + x \).
\( y = (1)^2 + 1 = 1 + 1 = 2 \)
Step3: For \( x = 3 \)
Substitute \( x = 3 \) into \( y = x^2 + x \).
\( y = (3)^2 + 3 = 9 + 3 = 12 \)

The completed table is:
| \( x \) | \( -3 \) | \( -2 \) | \( -1 \) | \( 0 \) | \( 1 \) | \( 2 \) | \( 3 \) |

Part (b)
To draw the graph of \( y = x^2 + x \):
- Plot the points from the table: \((-3, 6)\), \((-2, 2)\), \((-1, 0)\), \((0, 0)\), \((1, 2)\), \((2, 6)\), \((3, 12)\).
- Connect the points with a smooth curve (since it's a quadratic function, the graph will be a parabola). The vertex of the parabola \( y = ax^2 + bx + c \) is at \( x = -\frac{b}{2a} \). For \( y = x^2 + x \), \( a = 1 \), \( b = 1 \), so \( x = -\frac{1}{2(1)} = -\frac{1}{2} \). The graph opens upwards (because \( a > 0 \)).
(Note: Since this is a drawing task, the key is to plot the points accurately and draw a smooth curve through them. The grid provided has appropriate axes, so mark the points and draw the curve.)
