Maria has to spend 512 hours to finish her community service program in a community health clinic. Last week, she was able to spend 334 hours. Which equation can be used to determine the number of hours, h , that Maria still needs to spend to complete her service program?(1 point)

Answer 1

To determine the number of hours, \( h \), that Maria still needs to spend to complete her community service program, we can set up the following equation:

\[ h = 512 - 334 \]

Thus, the equation that represents the situation is:

\[ h = 512 - 334 \]

This equation calculates the remaining hours by subtracting the hours she has already spent from the total required hours.
