\(\left\{{}\begin{matrix}x_1+x_2=-\dfrac{b}{a}=-\dfrac{3}{4}\\x_1x_2=\dfrac{c}{a}=-\dfrac{1}{4}\end{matrix}\right.\)
\(A=-2\left(x_1-2\right)\left(x_2-2\right)\)
\(=\left(-2x_1+4\right)\left(x_2-2\right)\)
\(=-2x_1x_2+4x_1+4x_2-8\)
\(=-2x_1x_2+4\left(x_1+x_2\right)-8\)
\(=-2.\left(-\dfrac{1}{4}\right)+4.\left(-\dfrac{3}{4}\right)-8\)
\(=\dfrac{1}{2}-3-8\)
\(=\dfrac{1}{2}-11\)
\(=-\dfrac{21}{2}\)
