d = vo t - at²/2
v = vo - at
40 m = vo · 7.10 - a · ( 7.10 )²/2
40 m = 7.10 vo - a· 50.41/2
40 m = 7.10 vo - 25.205 a
2.75 m/s = vo - 7.10 a   ⇒  a = ( vo - 2.75 )/ 7.10
40 = 7.10 vo - 25.205 · ( vo - 2.75 ) / 7.10
40 = 7.1 vo - 3.55 vo + 9.7625
3.55 vo = 30.2375 
vo = 30.2375 : 3.55 = 8.5176 m/s
Answer: the truck`s original speed is 8.5176 m/s.
