To determine which point represents \( -(-2) \) on the number line, let's break down the expression step by step.
1. Understand the inner parentheses:
- We start with the value inside the parentheses, which is \(-2\). On the number line, \(-2\) is located two units to the left of 0.
2. Apply the outer negative sign:
- The expression is \(-(-2)\). The negative sign outside the parentheses indicates that we need to take the opposite of the value inside the parentheses.
- The opposite of \(-2\) is \(2\).
3. Determine the location on the number line:
- Now we need to find \(2\) on the number line. \(2\) is located two units to the right of 0.
Therefore, the point that represents [tex]\( -(-2) \)[/tex] on the number line is [tex]\( 2 \)[/tex].
