Answer:

a - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 a - 4

if we scale both numbers by the same factor, we will be creating an equivalent expression.

So, let's say we multiply the equation by 2.

1/2 a (2) = 1 a = a

-4 (2) = -8

One equivalent expression would be

a - 8

[If you want to test this out, try plugging in any number for a. For example, if you plug in 10...

1/2 of 10 = 5, 5 - 4 = 1

1 times 10 = 10, 10 - 8 = 2

These answers are the same scaled as the original equation, the answer for the first expression is multiplied by 2 to get the second expression]
