after the integration you should get....

[(8 - 2) – (-16 – 8)] – [(64/48) – (-512/48)]
= (6 + 24) – (4/3 + 32/3)
= 30 – 12
=18

Ok 1st integrate - (x^2/16) - [2 - (x/4)]
This will give you (x^3/48) - 2x + (x^2/8)
Sub in x=4 This will give you 64/48 - 8 + 2
Sub in x=-8 This will give you -512/48 + 16 + 8

Now [(64/48 - 8 + 2) - (-512/48 + 16 + 8)]

This will leave you with -14/3 - (-104/3)

Solving gives you -18 but you take the absolute value.
