Answer 2

we know
$speed = \frac{distance}{time}$
let the distance covered by train a is D.
Then distance covered by train b is 290-D.
and if the speed of train is a is x then that of b will be x-2.
so according to the question we get two equations:-
$x = \frac{d}{5} \\ x - 2 = \frac{290 - d}{5}$
solving both we get
$x = 30 km \: per \: hr\\ d = 150km$
so speed of train a is 30km/h and that of b is 28km/h.
