Question

Asia woke up late. It is 5:45 a.M. And is trying to decide if she has enough time to catch the bus. If it takes her 5 minutes to throw on an outfit, a minimum of twice as long to do her hair and make-up, and eight minutes longer than that to walk to the bus stop. Her bus driver regularly arrives at 6:15 am. Will she make it?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If Asia woke up by 5:45am and her bus regularly arrives at 6:15 am, the the total amount of time Asia needs to finish up to meet the bus is time within this interval of time i.e 30mintes.

Total time taken to dress up:

Time taken to throw an outfit = 5minutes

Time taken to do her hair and make up = 2(5) = 10 minutes

Time to walk to bus stop = 5+8 = 13minutes(8 minutes longer)

Total time she took to finish up and get to the bus = 5+10+13 = 28 minutes

Since the time used by Asia is less than the 30 minutes expected of her hence she will meet the bus

Answer 2

Answer:

She would be 3 minutes late.

Step-by-step explanation:

The time difference between 5:45 am and 6:15 am = 30 minutes

If it takes her 5 minutes to throw on an outfit = 5 minutes

A minimum of twice as long to do her hair and make-up = ≤ 5 × 2

≤ 10 minutes

Eight minutes longer than that to walk to the bus stop.

= 8 minutes longer than how long it takes her to do her hair and makeup

= 10 + 8

= 18 minutes

Total number of times it takes her to make it to the busstop

=( 5 + 10 + 18)minutes

= 33 minutes

Therefore, she will not make it because she would be 3 minutes late.
