What are f and g?
The question makes no sense to me as stated.
The measure of 2 = 2x + 12 and the measure of 8 = 4x - 48. What value of x will show that lines f and g are parallel?

What you have written are two equations. I have no idea what "measure" you are talking about.
The equations can be rewritten
2x = -10 and 4x = 56
They lead to x = -5 and x = 14. On a graph, they are both vertical lines.
