Answer 2

Calculation of Alina's Travel Time to School

To calculate the total travel time for Alina to reach school, we need to consider the time she has already spent traveling and the time she plans to spend before the school bell rings.

According to the information provided, Alina was halfway to school at 8:40 AM and plans to arrive at school 10 minutes before the bell rings at 9:00 AM.

Let's break down the calculation step by step:

1. Alina was halfway to school at 8:40 AM. This means she has already spent 8:40 AM - 8:00 AM = 40 minutes traveling.

2. Alina plans to arrive at school 10 minutes before the bell rings at 9:00 AM. Therefore, she will spend an additional 10 minutes traveling.

To find the total travel time, we add the time Alina has already spent traveling to the additional time she plans to spend:

Total travel time = Time already spent traveling + Additional travel time

Total travel time = 40 minutes + 10 minutes = 50 minutes

Therefore, it will take Alina 50 minutes to reach school.

Please note that the calculation assumes a linear travel time and does not account for factors such as traffic or variations in walking speed.
