Sagot :

Plane speed is 135 km/h and wind speed is 23 km/h

Explanation:

Your equations:

P

+

W

=

158

k

m

h

(Flying to Kampala with a tailwind)

P

W

=

112

k

m

h

(Flying from Kampala against wind)

Combine these two equations to get plane speed (W):

2

P

=

270

or

P

=

135

k

m

h

For wind speed you can use either the first or the second equation

P

+

W

=

158

W

=

158

P

W

=

158

135

W

=

23

k

m

h

This is wind speed (assuming constant).
