Answer:

Yes, the point (4,10) satisfies the inequality.

Explanation:

In order to answer this question, we can plug the values x = 4 and y = 10 into the inequality:

y ≥ 2x + 2

10 ≥ 2(4) + 2

Then solve:

10 ≥ 8 + 2

10 ≥ 10

Since the value 10 is greater than or equal to itself, the inequality is true at the point (4,10).
