1. **State the problem:** We need to find the value of the function $B(x) = 6x^2$ when $x = 1$. 2. **Formula used:** The function is given by $$B(x) = 6x^2$$ 3. **Substitute the value:** Replace $x$ with 1 in the function: $$B(1) = 6 \times 1^2$$ 4. **Calculate the power:** Since $1^2 = 1$, we have $$B(1) = 6 \times 1$$ 5. **Multiply:** $$B(1) = 6$$ **Final answer:** When $x = 1$, $B(x) = 6$.
