Answer:

You meet with your friend after 2 hours.

Explanation:

Consider the provided equation.


50h=190-45h

Where, h represents the number of hours until you and your friend meet.

We need to solve the equation for h.

Add 45h to both the sides of the equation.


50h+45h=190-45h+45h


95h=190

Now divide both the sides by 95.


(95h)/(95)=(190)/(95)


h=2

Hence, you meet with your friend after 2 hours.
