Explanation:

The question is incomplete so, the complete question is below:

Melissa and Rachel like to make funny hats. Melissa has made 20 zebra-printed hats, and Rachel has made h striped hats. Together they have made a total of 42 hats. Write an equation to describe this situation.

Now, to write an equation of the situation:

Let the number of hats made by Rachael be
h.

The number of zebra-printed hats made by Melissa = 20.

Total number of hats both of them have made together = 42.

Now, to write an equation describing the situation:


h+20=42.

Therefore,
h+20=42 is the equation of this situation.
