Mechanics HELP!! M1

A car of mass 1000kg tows a caravan of 750kg along a horizontal road. The engine of the car exerts a forward force of 2.5kN. The resistance to the motion of the car and caravan are 1000x and 750x respectively, where x is a constant. Given that the car accelerates at 1ms-2 find z and the tension in the tow bar.
