\includegraphics[max width=\textwidth, alt={}, center]{6bcc553c-4938-46ef-bba4-97391b4d58d4-14_378_666_264_737} The diagram shows part of the curve \(y = \frac { 2 } { ( 3 - 2 x ) ^ { 2 } } - x\) and its minimum point \(M\), which lies on the \(x\)-axis.
  1. Find expressions for \(\frac { \mathrm { d } y } { \mathrm {~d} x } , \frac { \mathrm {~d} ^ { 2 } y } { \mathrm {~d} x ^ { 2 } }\) and \(\int y \mathrm {~d} x\).
  2. Find, by calculation, the \(x\)-coordinate of \(M\).
  3. Find the area of the shaded region bounded by the curve and the coordinate axes.
