Answer:
Total time Shirley spent going and coming back from the mall= 152.5 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Usual time it takes to reach mall from home = 40 minutes
New time she took to reach the mall=12.5 minutes later than her usual time
= 40 minutes + 12.5 minutes= 52.5 minutes
New time she took to reach home ( lets assume she followed the same route as coming from home in which she spends 40 minutes) =20 minutes more than twice her usual time to reach home.=20 minutes + 2(40)= 20 minutes + 80 minutes
=100 minutes
Total time going and coming back from the mall =52.5 minutes +100 minutes = 152.5 minutes
