Not sure what notation you are using when you say
"blowing in at 53° "
is North your 0° and you are going clockwise, or
is 0° your positive x - axis and you are going counterclockwise ?
A plane is flying due south at a speed of 192 mph. a wind is blowing in at 53 degrees at 13 mph. what is the bearing of the plane?

Assuming the normal 0° at North, and ignoring the misuse of the word "bearing", I'd say that the resultant heading of the plane is 246.7°
I meant 336.7°
