yes, that is the correct answer.

I have a problem with the wording.

The plane is not really traveling at 1225km/hr it is travelling at 1225km/hr minus headwind. Since headwind equals 175km/hr the "actual" speed of the plane is 1050km/hr.

I think it should've said, "What is the speed of the plane before the headwind/tailwind is accounted for?"
