ANSWER : Rozalie spent 6.73 hours at the garage


rate of change = $2.75
base fee = $7.50

set up your equation:
2.75h + 7.5 = 26
($2.75/hour plus the base fee of $7.50 equals the total amount spent, $26)

Now just solve for h

2.75h + 7.5 = 26
2.75h = 18.5
h = 6.727273 (rounded)
h = 6.73

So the answer would be Rozalie spent about 6.73 hours at the garage.
