Answer: 2.5 hours or 2 hr and 30 min
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set up an equation to find how many hours you can park.
2.5+4x=12.5
The 2.5 comes from the base fee. The 4x is the hourly rate, where x is hours. The 12.5 is the total amount of money you have.
Since we have our equation, we can solve for x.
4x=10
x=2.5
You can park for 2.5 hours, or 2 hours and 30 min.
