To solve this equation, we need to isolate the variable s on one side of the equation. To do this, we can subtract 1 half from both sides of the equation, which gives us: 1 half 4s + 2 - 1 half = 10 - 1 half

Next, we can combine the like terms on the left side of the equation by adding 1 half and 2 together, which gives us: 1 half 4s + 2 + 1 half = 10 - 1 half
1 half 4s = 10 - 1 half - 2

Now we can isolate the variable s by dividing both sides of the equation by 1 half, which gives us: 1 half 4s = 10 - 1 half - 2
4s = 10 - 1 half - 2
4s = 9 half - 2
4s = 19 half - 4
s = 19 half - 4 / 4
s = 19 half - 1

To plot this solution on a number line, we can start by drawing a line and marking the numbers from 0 to 10 at equal intervals. Then, we can find the point that corresponds to 19 half - 1 and mark it on the number line. This point will be the solution to the equation.
