    A) 2                                 

    B) 6

    C) 4                                 

    D) 8

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[{{2}^{2x-y}}=16={{2}^{4}}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[2x-y=4\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{2}^{x+y}}=32={{2}^{5}}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[x+y=5\]
    Solving for \[x\]and \[y,\]\[3x=9\]\[\Rightarrow \]\[x=3\]and \[y=2\]
    \[\therefore \]                  \[xy=6\]
