  1. State the values of \(a , b\) and \(c\).
  2. For these values of \(a , b\) and \(c\), determine the number of solutions in the interval \(0 \leqslant x \leqslant 2 \pi\) for each of the following equations:
    1. \(a \sin ( b x ) + c = 7 - x\)
    2. \(\quad a \sin ( b x ) + c = 2 \pi ( x - 1 )\).
