On the question, I know what to do etc.
But when you draw the trapezium will the top length not be T-5? Why is it just T on the mark scheme

She accelerates for 5 seconds, then maintains her speed for a further T seconds. Therefore the times along the bottom should be 5, T+5, 75 and so the top length is T.
