It's in the Boeing 757 Ops Manual; 313 below 8 and they reccommend 250 below 10 at 40 miles inbound in the descent to get the 3 degree profile right for a constant descent approach i.e low thrust low drag low noise low noise complaints low fuel bills

Again this is covered in much greater depth on another forum far too clever for me to be browsing.
