Answer:

  3 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent Alysha's time to drive home from the market.

Speed and time are inversely proportional to each other (for the same distance), so we have ...

  (walking speed)(walking time) = (driving speed)(driving time)

  5(x +21) = (8·5)(x)

  x +21 = 8x . . . . . . . . . divide by 5

  21 = 7x . . . . . . . . subtract x

  3 = x . . . . . . .divide by 7

It takes Alysha 3 minutes to drive home from the market.
