55mph.
you can solve it using the equation distance=speed x time
your total distance is 714, and you have 2 trains, one traveling some speed, x, and one traveling x+8, both traveling for 7 hours.
your equation would look like this

and you can then solve for x, which would be 47. this is the speed of the slower train, but 47+8=55 with give you the speed of the faster train.

The annual income tax paid by the person is: $4,500.
<h3>Annual income tax</h3>
Using this formula
Annual income tax=[Salary÷(1-percentage deduction)]- Salary
Let plug in the formula
Annual income tax=[40,500÷(1-10%)]-40,500
Annual income tax=45,000-40,500
Annual income tax=4500
Therefore the annual income tax paid by the person is: $4,500.

Answer:
x = 
y = 24
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x - 8y = 20 .... (1)
-5x + y = 19 .... (2)
What we can do is take the (2) equation
-5x + y = 19
and solve for y by adding 5x to both sides
y = 24
now that we have y we substitute it in for y in equation (1)
-3x - 8(24) = 20
-3x - 192 = 20
we want to solve for x so we need to get its self.
add 192 to both sides
-3x = 212
now we divide both sides by -3. It's going to be a fraction.
x =
