If the function \[f(x)={{x}^{3}}-6a{{x}^{2}}+5x\]satisfies the conditions of Lagrange's mean value theorem for the interval [1, 2] and the tangent to the curve \[y=f(x)\]at \[x=\frac{7}{4}\]is parallel to the chord that joins the points of intersection of the curve with the ordinates \[x=1\] and \[x=2\]. Then the value of \[a\]is [MP PET 1998]
