I feel like the answer is

10h = 110

although it's so simple that I'm not even sure it would be considered an equation.

I got the answer because she works, in total, 10 hours a week. She makes $130 a week, but since $20 comes from the dog walking, you have to do 130 minus 20 which is 110. That's what I did anyway.
