Answer:

The second line from the top

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve -4 - (-8), start at the origin (0) and go left 4 units.  That's the small arrow underneath the longer one.  Be careful with the scale on the number line:  each space is worth 2 units.

So from -4 subtract -8 by going to the RIGHT 8 units (4 spaces).  You go to the right because you are SUBTRACTING -8.  (If you were adding -8, you'd go to the left.)

You end up at 4.
