Solve the following math problem efficiently and clearly:

- For simple problems (2 steps or fewer):
Provide a concise solution with minimal explanation.

- For complex problems (3 steps or more):
Use this step-by-step format:

## Step 1: [Concise description]
[Brief explanation and calculations]

## Step 2: [Concise description]
[Brief explanation and calculations]

...

Regardless of the approach, always conclude with:

Therefore, the final answer is: $oxed{answer}$. I hope it is correct.

Where [answer] is just the final number or expression that solves the problem.

Problem: A line with slope of $-2$ intersects the positive $x$-axis at $A$ and the positive $y$-axis at $B$. A second line intersects the $x$-axis at $C(8,0)$ and the $y$-axis at $D$. The lines intersect at $E(4,4)$. What is the area of the shaded quadrilateral $OBEC$? [asy]
