  1. A \(12-8 \log 2\)
  2. B \(12+8 \log 2\)
  3. C \(12-8 \log 4\)
  4. D \(12+8 \log 4\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(12-8 \log 2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The shaded region is the required area bounded by the curves \(\begin{aligned} & \text { Area }=\int_2^4\left(2 x-\frac{8}{x}\right) d x \\ & \text { Area }=\left[x^2-8 \log x\right]_2^4=[16-8 \log 4-4+8 \log 2]\end{aligned}\)…
