The equation of a curve is \(y = 3 \cos 2x\) and the equation of a line is \(2y + \frac{3x}{\pi} = 5\).
(i) State the smallest and largest values of \(y\) for both the curve and the line for \(0 \leq x \leq 2\pi\).
(ii) Sketch, on the same diagram, the graphs of \(y = 3 \cos 2x\) and \(2y + \frac{3x}{\pi} = 5\) for \(0 \leq x \leq 2\pi\).
(iii) State the number of solutions of the equation \(6 \cos 2x = 5 - \frac{3x}{\pi}\) for \(0 \leq x \leq 2\pi\).
