4h+13=37
4 h plus 13 is equal to 37

4h+37=13
4 h plus 37 is equal to 13

4h−37=13
4 h minus 37 is equal to 13

4h−13=37

Answer 1

The correct equation to find the number of hours, \( h \), Mateo rented the bike is:

\( 4h + 13 = 37 \)

This equation represents the total cost of renting the bike, which includes the $13 base charge and the cost per hour ($4 for each hour, \( h \)).
