To solve 4-12 on a number line you would need to start on 4 then move 12 places to the left since 12 is negative. Twelve would be negative because you cant take away 12 from 4 . When you move 12 places to the left you would get -8

Answer:

representing the number 4 - 12 in the number line

A number line is a line in which all the positive and negative numbers are marked on it.

the number line is represented in the diagram attached below.

when 4 is subtracted by 12 then we move left on the line graph and the point -8 will be represented in the graph.

What equation goes through the plot (-2,2) and is parallel to y= 1/2x + 8
Marina CMI [18]
The answer is y=1/2x + 7. 

The plot is (-2,2), so what it actually is, is (x,y) so you always have the same slope when lines are parallel. So you just need to solve for the y-intercept. so you substitute -2 in for x and you get the y-intercept! Hope this helps!
