A shipyard produces 6 new ships each month. Let m represent the number of months and s represent the total number of ships produced. Complete the table using the function s=6m. Explain your thinking.

Answer 1

18

Explanation:

s = 6m.... (given)

We need to find the value of s when m = 3

So plug m = 3 in the above equation, we find:

s = 6*3

s = 18
