Which product is modeled by the number line below?

A number line going from negative 8 to positive 8. An arrow goes from 0 to negative 2, from negative 2 to negative 4, from negative 4 to negative 6, and from negative 6 to negative 8.

(negative 3) (4)

(negative 2) (4)

(2) (4)

(3) (4)

(B) (negative 2) (4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The arrow on the number line ended at negative 8 (-8).

Given the options:

(A) (negative 3) (4) = (-3) (4) = -12

(B) (negative 2) (4) = (-2) (4) = -8

(C) (2) (4) = 8

(D) (3) (4) = 12

The expected product is - 8 since that is where the arrow ended. Therefore, the product that is modeled by the number line is that which gives a result of - 8. The correct option is B.

(B) (negative 2) (4) = (-2) (4) = -8
