Answer:Explanation:

Yes

The point is a solution if it satisfies the inequality.

In this case, the inequality is y ≤ (1/3)x + 4, so replacing (x, y) = (-6, 2), we get:

y ≤ (1/3)x + 4

2 (1/3)(-6) + 4≤

2 ≤ -2 + 4

2 ≤ 2

Since 2 is equal to 2, the inequality is satisfied and (-6, 2) is a solution.

So, the answer is Yes.
