Question

Which number line best shows how to solve −8 − (−2)? A number line from negative 10 to 10 is shown, with numbers labeled at intervals of 2. An arrow is shown from point 0 to negative 8. Another arrow points from negative 8 to negative 2. A number line from negative 10 to 10 is shown, with numbers labeled at intervals of 2. An arrow is shown from point 0 to negative 8. Another arrow points from negative 8 to 2. A number line from negative 10 to 10 is shown, with numbers labeled at intervals of 2. An arrow is shown from point 0 to negative 8. Another arrow points from negative 8 to negative 6. A number line from negative 10 to 10 is shown, with numbers labeled at intervals of 2. An arrow is shown from point 0 to negative 8.

Answer 2

Answer:

A number line from negative 10 to 10 is shown, with numbers labeled at intervals of 2. An arrow is shown from point 0 to negative 8. Another arrow points from negative 8 to negative 6

Step-by-step explanation:

A number line is a straight line with numbers placed at equal intervals. Positive numbers are placed to the right of 0 and negative numbers are placed to the left of zero.

When a number (x) is added x unit is moved to the right while if a number (x) is subtracted x units is moved to the left.

To solve -8 - (-2) = -8 + 2

Given a A number line from negative 10 to 10 with numbers labeled at intervals of 2. An arrow is shown from point 0 to negative 8 then since 2 is added, we move 2 units right from negative 8 to negative 6.
