Respuesta :

Answer:

42= 20 +h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given from the problem statement

Melissa has made 20 zebra-printed hats

and Rachel has made h amount of striped hats

and also the total amounts of hats made by both of them is 42 hats

We can write a simple equation for the scenario as

[tex]42= 20 +h[/tex]

We can solve the equation to know the amount of hats made by  Rachel

[tex]42= 20+h\\\\h= 42-20\\\\h= 22[/tex]

Hence Rachel has made 22 hats
