The curve \(C\) is defined by the parametric equations

\(x=3{{t}^{2}}+2\), \(y=6t-1\) where \(t\ge \frac{1}{6}\).

The line \(N\) is the normal to \(C\) at the point \(\left( 14,\,\,11 \right)\).

  1. Find the cartesian equation of \(N\). Give your answer in the form \(ax+by=c\), where \(a\), \(b\) and \(c\) are integers to be determined.[5]
  2. Find the area enclosed by \(C\), \(N\) and the \(x\)-axis.[4]
  3. The curve \(C\) and the line \(N\) are both transformed by a \(2\)-way stretch, scale factor \(2\) in the \(x\)-direction and scare factor \(3\) in the \(y\)-direction, to form the curve \(D\) and the line \(M\).
    1. Find the area enclosed by \(D\),\(M\) and the \(x\)-axis.[1]
    2. Find the cartesian equation of \(D\).[2]
