The corresponding values x2 are in A373996. The corresponding maximum values for k, for which the y-coordinates of the extreme points and the inflection point are integers, are in A373997.
These polynomial functions can be used in math lessons when discussing curves. Zeros, extreme points and inflection points can be determined without unnecessary calculation effort with fractions and roots.
Of course, these functions can be stretched in the y-direction by a factor 1/k without affecting the zeros, the extreme points and the inflection point, or shifted in the x-direction, whereby the zeros, the extreme points and the inflection point are also shifted.

			9 is in the sequence, since the x-cordinates of the extreme points and of the inflection point of f(x) = 1/k*x*(x - 9)*(x - 24) are 4, 18 and 11.
24 is in the sequence, since the x-cordinates of the extreme points and of the inflection point of f(x) = 1/k*x*(x - 24)*(x - 45) are 10, 36 and 23.
