The diagram shows a quadrilateral \(OABC\), where
\(\overrightarrow{OA}=\mathbf a,\qquad \overrightarrow{OB}=\mathbf b,\qquad \overrightarrow{OC}=\mathbf c.\)
The line \(AC\) intersects \(OB\) at \(P\), and \(AP:PC=3:2\).
(a) Find \(\overrightarrow{OP}\) in terms of \(\mathbf a\) and \(\mathbf c\).
(b) Given that \(OP:PB=2:3\), show that
\(2\mathbf b=3\mathbf c+2\mathbf a.\)
