In the diagram, \(OP=2\mathbf a\), \(SR=5\mathbf a\), \(OS=3\mathbf b\) and \(QR=\mathbf b\).
The point \(X\) lies on \(PS\) and on \(OQ\). It is given that \(PX=\lambda PS\) and \(OX=\mu OQ\).
(a) Express \(\overrightarrow{OX}\) in terms of \(\lambda\), \(\mathbf a\) and \(\mathbf b\).
(b) Express \(\overrightarrow{OQ}\) in terms of \(\mathbf a\) and \(\mathbf b\).
(c) Find the values of \(\lambda\) and \(\mu\).
(d) Find \(OX:OQ\).
(e) Find \(PX:XS\).
