Well, Matt and Jaime definitely have different speeds and different velocities. If they had the same speed, they would be moving at the same rate, but in different directions. However, since they are also moving at a different speed, it means they are moving at different rates and in different directions. So the correct statement is:
They have different speeds and different velocities.
They have different speeds but the same velocity.
In order to answer this question, we first need to understand the concepts of speed and velocity. Speed refers to how fast an object is moving, while velocity refers to the speed and direction of an object's motion.
In the given scenario, Matt is walking at a speed of 1.25 miles per hour to the east, and Jaime is walking at a speed of 1.25 miles per hour to the south.
Since both Matt and Jaime have the same speed of 1.25 miles per hour, the statement "They have the same speed" is correct.
However, their velocities are different because their directions of motion are different. Matt is moving to the east, while Jaime is moving to the south. Therefore, the statement "but different velocities" is also correct.
Combining both statements, the correct answer is: They have the same speed but different velocities.
