I assume that for this item, you already have written the equation that is asked of you to generate using the table which unfortunately you have not shown in the question. So, we'll go directly to answer lettering c.

We determine the height of a bunny hop of the bike by directly substituting the weight in pounds in the equation. That is,

y = - 0.2 (21.5 lbs) + 14

y = 9.7 inches

Thus, the answer for letter c is 9.7 inches.
