Let the average speed for the first part of the trip be x miles per hour.

Therefore, the time taken for the first part of the trip = 165/x

For the return trip, the average speed is x-22 miles per hour.

The time taken for the return trip = 165/(x-22)

According to the given information, the return trip took 2 hours longer than the first part of the trip.

Therefore, 165/x + 2 = 165/(x-22)

Multiplying through by x(x - 22), we get:

165(x-22) + 2x(x - 22) = 165x

Expanding and simplifying, we get:

165x - 3630 + 2x^2 - 44x = 165x

Rearranging terms, we get:

2x^2 - 44x - 3630 = 0

Using the quadratic formula to solve for x, we get:

x = (44 ± √(44^2 - 4*2*(-3630)) / 2*2
x = (44 ± √(1936 + 29040)) / 4
x = (44 ± √30976) / 4
x = (44 ± 176) / 4

x = 220/4 or x = -132/4

Therefore, x = 55 or x = -33, since the speed cannot be negative, we take x = 55

Hence, the average speed for the first part of the trip is 55 mph.

Plugging this back into the time equation, we get:

Time taken for the first part of the trip = 165/55 = 3 hours

Time taken for the return trip: 165/(55-22) = 165/33 = 5 hours

Therefore, the time and average speed for each part of the trip is as follows:

First part: Time = 3 hours, Speed = 55 mph
Return part: Time = 5 hours, Speed = 33 mph
