Based on a linear equation, the total cost of parking at he National Museum Park for 2.5 hours is $5.75.
A linear equation is written in the form of y = mx + c with two variables (x and y) and two constants (m and c).
The fixed parking fee = $2.00
The variable parking charge per hour = $1.50
The total hours the car is parked at the National Museum Park = 2.5 hours
The total cost of of parking for 2.5 hours at the National Museum Park = $5.75 ($1.50 x 2.5 + $2.00)
Thus, the total cost to park for 2.5 hours at the National Museum Park is $5.75.
