An increase in wave frequency cause a decrease in wavelength while the wave speed remains constant.

Hoping this is what you are looking for.

the formula to find the speed of a wave

speed = wavelength x frequency

speed and frequency are directly proportional so as one increases then the other one will increase as well. in this case as the frequency increases then the speed of the wave will also increase.

hope this helps :)
