Answer:

She will be ready, and she will make it on time.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]Start\ Time = 10:20\ am[/tex]

[tex]Planting = 5\ hours[/tex]

[tex]Shower = 1\ hour[/tex]

Required

Will she be ready by 5pm?

First, we calculate the time spent in planting and taking shower.

[tex]Time\ Spent = Planting + Shower[/tex]

[tex]Time\ Spent = 5\ hours + 1\ hour[/tex]

[tex]Time\ Spent = 6\ hours[/tex]

Next, we calculate the end time. i.e. the time she'll finish these tasks.

[tex]End\ Time=Start\ Time + Time\ Spent[/tex]

[tex]End\ Time=10:20\ am + 6\ hours[/tex]

[tex]End\ Time=04:20\ pm[/tex]

Since 04:20 pm is less than 5pm, then she will be ready, and she will make it on time.
