  1. Find the equation of the tangent to the curve \(y = \ln ( 3 x - 2 )\) at the point where \(x = 1\).
    1. Find the value of the constant \(A\) such that $$\frac { 6 x } { 3 x - 2 } \equiv 2 + \frac { A } { 3 x - 2 }$$
    2. Hence show that \(\int _ { 2 } ^ { 6 } \frac { 6 x } { 3 x - 2 } \mathrm {~d} x = 8 + \frac { 8 } { 3 } \ln 2\).
