Answer:

5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We can express the information given using an equation

y = 0.75(x - 1) + 2

Where y represents the total amount charged and x represents the hours

If Nate has only $5, we can plug that into y and solve for x

5 = 0.75(x - 1) + 2

3 = .75(x - 1)

4 = x - 1

5 = x

Nate can park for 5 hours
