The resultant velocity of the plane is the sum of the two velocity vectors which are perpendicular to each other. See the attached figure.

The magnitude of the resultant velocity is

\sqrt{160^2+30^2}= \sqrt{26500}=162.79 \;mph.

The approximate value of the actual velocity of the plane is 163 \;mph. Correct choice is (D).

Step-by-step explanation:

You start by calculating the slope which is y1-y2 over x1-x2, which plugging the numbers in, comes out to be -3. Then, taking the point slope formula

(y-y1=m[x-x1]), you just plug the rest of the variables in.
