The speed of wind and speed of plane in still air  are  23  and  135 km/h respectively.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let the speed of wind and speed of plane in still air  are  w  and  p km/h respectively.  

The effective speed on onward journey was  

p+w=158  ................(1)

The effective speed on return journey was  

p-w=112 ..............(2)

Adding equation (1) and equation (2) we get,  

⇒ (p+w)+(p-w) = 158+112

⇒ 2p = 270

⇒ p = 135

Putting value of p = 135 in p+w=158 we get:

⇒ p+w=158

⇒ 135+w=158

⇒ w=23

Therefore ,The speed of wind and speed of plane in still air  are  23  and  135 km/h respectively.

Please help with numbers 1 and 2 !!!
lesantik [10]
Well, this is a stem and leaf problem. 

The numbers are 20, 28, 29, 29, 31, 32, 36, 41, and 42. 

In order to solve for the mean, we find the average and we add the numbers together and divide by 9(there are 9 numbers). 

The mean is 32.
The median is the middle number, or 31.
