\end{figure} Figure 4 shows a sketch of part of the curve \(C\) with equation $$y = \frac { 32 } { x ^ { 2 } } + 3 x - 8 , \quad x > 0$$ The point \(P ( 4,6 )\) lies on \(C\).
The line \(l\) is the normal to \(C\) at the point \(P\).
The region \(R\), shown shaded in Figure 4, is bounded by the line \(l\), the curve \(C\), the line with equation \(x = 2\) and the \(x\)-axis. Show that the area of \(R\) is 46
