Final answer:

To determine if a point lies on a line, substitute its coordinates into the line's equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine if the point (10, 2) lies on the given line, we need to substitute the x and y coordinates of the point into the equation of the line and check if it satisfies the equation. If the equation is true, then the point lies on the line. The equation of a line can be written in the form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. If the point satisfies the equation, then it lies on the line. If it does not satisfy the equation, then it does not lie on the line. Given that the equation of the line is not provided, we are unable to determine if the point (10, 2) lies on the line. Therefore, the answer is indeterminable.
