Answer:

T = 8 + 5 + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it took Penelope 8 minutes to drive to the store at a rate of 1 block per minute then that means the store was 8 blocks away. That being the case if she drives back home from the store at 4 blocks every 3 minutes that would mean that she took 6 minutes (4+4 = 8) to get back home. Using this data we can create the following equation model to calculate the total time of the trip.

T = 8 + 5 + 6
