Renee Hayden · Answer 1

Answer is: Scott rode faster than Jill.

t (Jill, Scott) = 30 min : 60 min/h.

t (Jill, Scott) = 0.5 h; Jills and Scott time.

d (Jill) = 5 km; Jills traveled distance.

s (Jill) = d (Jill) : t (Jill).

s (Jill) = 5 km : 0.5 h.

s (JIll) = 10 km/h; Jills speed.

s (Scott) = 10 km : 0.5 h.

s (Scott) = 20 km/h; speed of Scott.

Caleb Barrera · Answer 2

I believe that the answer is B. Scott had the faster speed since he rode at 20 k/h while Jill only traveled 10 km/h. Because Jill had only gone 5 kilometers vs Scott going a full 10 kileters double what Jill had went.

Have a nice day!
