Question 205871: A car travels a 750 km journey at average speed of x km/h. If it had increased its speed by 18 km/h, the journey would have been 125 minutes shorter. Form an equation in x and show that it reduces to x²+ 18x= 6480. Solve this equation to find the value of x. Hence find the time taken when the car travels at x km/h.
