8. (i) Find, using algebraic integration, the exact value of $$\int _ { 3 } ^ { 42 } \frac { 2 } { 3 x - 1 } \mathrm {~d} x$$ giving your answer in simplest form.
(ii) $$\mathrm { h } ( x ) = \frac { 2 x ^ { 3 } - 7 x ^ { 2 } + 8 x + 1 } { ( x - 1 ) ^ { 2 } } \quad x > 1$$ Given \(\mathrm { h } ( x ) = A x + B + \frac { C } { ( x - 1 ) ^ { 2 } }\) where \(A , B\) and \(C\) are constants to be found, find $$\int \mathrm { h } ( x ) \mathrm { d } x$$ \includegraphics[max width=\textwidth, alt={}, center]{1c700103-ecab-4a08-b411-3f445ed88885-26_2258_47_312_1985}
