Nelda walks from the Big Pine neighborhood to school every morning. Jonah walks from the Stone Creek neighborhood to school every morning. They both leave at the same time, but Nelda always arrives before Jonah. What other information is needed to determine who walks the fastest?

Answer:

to know the speed, you need the distance

Step-by-step explanation:

The two people walk at a constant speed, so we can use the uniform motion relationships

v = d / t

as they indicate that the two arrive at the same time we have the time, we need to know the distance and with this data calculate the speed of each one

Therefore, to know the speed, you need the distance
