The correct statement is:
**They have the same speed but different velocities.**
Although Matt and Jaime are both walking at the same speed of 1.25 miles per hour, their velocities are different because they are moving in different directions (Matt to the east and Jaime to the south). Velocity is a vector quantity that includes both speed and direction.
