I don't see how it's connected?

Following on from the code we wrote in the Workspace, I don't see how that solution applies to this part of the question.

Question: Using Connection c, insert exactly one row into the languages table. The new row's id column should have a value of 2, and its name column should have a value of 'Java'.

If anyone would be able to explain to me how this is done and how that relates the the past video that would be amazing!

Thank you very much for all your help! Alastair

Application.java 
// Load class "org.sqlite.JDBC"
 Class.forName("org.sqlite.JDBC");

// Establish connection to database named "treehouse.db"
try(Connection c = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:sqlite:treehouse.db")) {

} catch(SQLException ex) {

}
