  2. B 488
  3. C 160
  4. D 208
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 208

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(P = 4^3 + 2(4) + 18 = 64 + 8 + 18 = 90\) \(\text{PS} = (P \cdot x) - \int_0^x S(q) dq\) \(\text{PS} = (90 \cdot 4) - \int_0^4 (x^3 + 2x + 18) dx\) \(\text{PS} = 360 - \left[ \frac{x^4}{4} + x^2 + 18x \right]_0^4\)…
