Error generated by graphicx with a table

Question

I am getting a compilation error when I use the package graphicx with a table that I generated from this website: https://www.tablesgenerator.com/. When I drop the \usepackage{graphicx} from the text and leave the table, the compilation works fine. On the other hand, when I take off the table and leave the \usepackage{graphicx}, the compilation also works fine. I need that both of them work together. Here is an example of the text that I am working with:

\documentclass{article}

\onehalfspacing

Answer 1

Don't use \resizebox for elements which contain text. This usually gives a very poor result.

Instead you could use a table like this:

\documentclass{article}
\renewcommand{\contentsname}{Sumário}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{setspace}
\onehalfspacing
\usepackage{hyperref}
\hypersetup{colorlinks=true,linkcolor=[rgb]{0,0,0.6},citecolor=[rgb]{0,0,0.6},urlcolor=[rgb]{0,0,0.6}}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{geometry}
\geometry{verbose,tmargin=2.5cm,bmargin=2.5cm,lmargin=2.5cm,rmargin=2.5cm}
\usepackage{mathpazo}
\renewcommand{\sfdefault}{lmss}
\renewcommand{\ttdefault}{lmtt}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\title{Regulation}
