4 A random variable \(X\) has probability density function f defined by $$f ( x ) = \begin{cases} \frac { a } { x ^ { 2 } } - \frac { 18 } { x ^ { 3 } } & 2 \leqslant x \leqslant 3
0 & \text { otherwise } \end{cases}$$ where \(a\) is a constant.

1. Show that \(a = \frac { 27 } { 2 }\).
2. Show that \(\mathrm { E } ( X ) = \frac { 27 } { 2 } \ln \frac { 3 } { 2 } - 3\).
