The correct answer is: 10,-4

Given that A1=2A2

Now, from the graph

A1+A2=x×y-2×4=xy-8

32 A1=xy-8

A1=23xy-163

4xfxdx=23xy-163

fx=23xdydx+y

23xdydx=y3

2dyy=dxx

2lny=lnx+lnc

y2=cx 

As f4=2c=1

So y2=x is the given curve.

Given that the slope of normal =-6

So the equation of normal will be 

y=-6x-12-6-14-63

y=-6x+3+54

y+6x=57

Only 10,-4 does not satisfy from the given options.
