It seems you've provided a table that lists values for two functions, \( f(x) = 4x + 20 \) and \( g(x) = 2x + 6 \), evaluated at various values of \( x \). To analyze or compute any further information based on the values, let's first summarize the computed values of \( f(x) \) and \( g(x) \):

| x | f(x) = 4x + 20 | g(x) = 2x + 6 |
|-----|------------------|------------------|
| -6 | -4 | 1 |
| -5 | 0 | 2 |
| -4 | 4 | 4 |
| -3 | 8 | 8 |
| -2 | 12 | 16 |
| -1 | 16 | 32 |
| 0 | 20 | 64 |

### Summary of Values:
- For \( x = -6 \):
- \( f(-6) = 4(-6) + 20 = -24 + 20 = -4 \)
- \( g(-6) = 2(-6) + 6 = -12 + 6 = 1 \)

- For \( x = -5 \):
- \( f(-5) = 4(-5) + 20 = -20 + 20 = 0 \)
- \( g(-5) = 2(-5) + 6 = -10 + 6 = 2 \)

- For \( x = -4 \):
- \( f(-4) = 4(-4) + 20 = -16 + 20 = 4 \)
- \( g(-4) = 2(-4) + 6 = -8 + 6 = 4 \)

- For \( x = -3 \):
- \( f(-3) = 4(-3) + 20 = -12 + 20 = 8 \)
- \( g(-3) = 2(-3) + 6 = -6 + 6 = 0 \)

- For \( x = -2 \):
- \( f(-2) = 4(-2) + 20 = -8 + 20 = 12 \)
- \( g(-2) = 2(-2) + 6 = -4 + 6 = 2 \)

- For \( x = -1 \):
- \( f(-1) = 4(-1) + 20 = -4 + 20 = 16 \)
- \( g(-1) = 2(-1) + 6 = -2 + 6 = 4 \)

- For \( x = 0 \):
- \( f(0) = 4(0) + 20 = 0 + 20 = 20 \)
- \( g(0) = 2(0) + 6 = 0 + 6 = 6 \)

### Observations:
1. The function \( f(x) \) is always greater than or equal to \( g(x) \) for the values of \( x \) given in the table, except at \( x = -4 \) where they are equal.
2. The function \( f(x) \) increases at a faster rate than \( g(x) \) because the slope of \( f(x) \) is greater than the slope of \( g(x) \) (4 and 2, respectively).
