Wavelength and frequency have a direct relationship. ... The shorter the wavelength, the higher the frequency. The speed of a sound wave is related to the density, elasticity and temperature of the medium it's traveling through. Sound travels through air at around 343 m/s at sea level.

Speed = distance / time
Hence,
Wavespeed =wavelength/time period
V=£/t
V=£×1/t
We know that 1/t=f( frequency)
V=£f
Both frequency and wavelength are directly proportional to wave speed
