Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{32}{3}\) sq. units

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation



Required area is shaded.
Point of intersection of given curves are \((0,0)\) and \((4,16)\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \therefore A=\int_0^4\left(4 x-x^2\right) d x \\
& =4 \int_0^4 x d x-\int_0^4 x^2 d x=4\left[\frac{x^2}{2}\right]_0^4-\left[\frac{x^3}{3}\right]_0^4 \\
& =2(16)-\frac{(4)^2}{3}=32-\frac{64}{3}=\frac{32}{3} \text { sq. units }
\end{aligned}
