Answer:

Eliza

Explanation:

Calculate each of their speeds in like terms, then compare to find out who ran faster.

Eliza's speed = distance / time = 100 meters / 20 seconds = 5.0 meters / second

Arielle's speed = distance / time = 150 meters / 35 seconds = 4.3 meters / second

Eliza's speed is 5.0 meters / second, which is faster than Arielle's speed of 4.3 meters / second.

Therefore, Eliza ran faster.
