Hello guys I just wanted to know the answer or this problem, Meredith rented a bike from Bubba's Bike Shack. They charged $2 per hour. Meredith paid $26. Which equation could be used to find h, the number of hours Meredith rented the bike? Thanks for reading, and help me please

Since they charge $2 per hour, 2 is the variable, and x is the number of hours.

To find the number of hours after paying 26 dollars:
2x = 26

To solve for x: Divide both sides by 2
2x/2 = 26/2
1x = 13
She rented the bike for 13 hours.
