Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the starting point

The starting point on the number line is \(-6\).

Step 2: Count 4 units away from \(-6\) in both directions

From \(-6\), count 4 units to the right and 4 units to the left:

  • To the right: \(-6 + 4 = -2\)
  • To the left: \(-6 - 4 = -10\)
Step 3: Find the opposites of the identified numbers

The opposites of \(-2\) and \(-10\) are the numbers that are the same distance from \(0\) but on the opposite sides:

  • Opposite of \(-2\): \(2\)
  • Opposite of \(-10\): \(10\)

Final Answer

\(\boxed{-10}\), \(\boxed{-2}\), \(\boxed{10}\), \(\boxed{2}\)
