What is the speed of someone running three fourths of a mile for 5 minutes?

Assuming you mean "running three fourths of a mile in 5 minutes", it's 9mph. 5 minutes is 1/12 of an hour (5/60 = 12), so if he could keep up that pace for an hour, he would run 3/4 x 12 = 9 miles.

If you have 2 faucets and 1 pond and the 1st faucet fills the pond in 8 minutes by its self and both faucets fill the pond in 5 minutes how many minutes will it take the 2nd faucet to fill the pond?

F1 fills one-eighth per minute, F1 & F2 together fill one-fifth per minute, so F2 is responsible for one-fifth less one-eighth ie three-fortieths per minute so F2 alone would take 40/3 ie 13 min 20 sec.

A student wants to find out how much water flows from a faucet in three minutes What is the most accurate way for them to determine this?

Flow is measured by volume per time. To make measurement you will need a stop watch and a container that has a volume measurement such as a gallon jug or five gallon bucket. Start filling container and start timer simultaneously, then after three minutes turn off faucet. Measure amount of water in container either by the volume on the conainer itself or use another container to measure in increments such as a quart jar or a 2-litre. Once you have determined your volume divide it by your time which would be three minutes. If you used gallons your result would be gallons per minute or gpm. If you used litres it would be litres per minute.
