Answer: 20

H(c) = 6.4 + 0.6c

6.4 is the constant.

When the height of the cups is 18.4 the function is:

18.4 = 6.4 + 0.6c

Then, you add 6.4 from both sides

18.4 - 6.4 + 6.4 = 6.4 + 0.6c - 6.4 + 6.4

Simplify

18.4 = 6.4 + 0.6c

Switch sides

6.4 + 0.6c = 18.4

Multiply both sides by 10

6.4 x 10 + 0.6c x 10 = 18.4 x 10

Refine

64 + 6c = 184

Subtract 64 from both sides

64 + 6c - 64 = 184 - 64

Simplify

6c = 120

Divide both sides by 6

6c/6 = 120/6

c = 20
