The speed of sound varies greatly, depending on the material it goes through - in some cases, by a factor of 5 or more. The speed of sound in air will depend slightly on temperature, pressure, etc., but it is about 340 meters/second. I'll leave it up to you to convert that to mph.

Velocity is a vector quantity that measures speed (and also includes direction). 55 mph is a speed. 55mph North is a velocity.
What is mach 4 speed?
The speed of sound is around 760 miles per hour = Mach 1. So Mach 4 is 4*760 = 3040 mph.
What is the average speed of 40 mph and 60 mph?
Average speed is 50 mph [(40+60)/2].
If 2 identical cars crash and each is traveling at 50 mph is the impact speed 50 mph or 100 mph and why?
The impact speed for each car is 50 mph. During the crash, both cars are accelerated from a speed of 50 mph to zero, hence the impact speed is 50 mph. The relative speed between each car, however, is 100 mph.
