Answer:

yes, (1,6) is a solution to the inequality y<4x+2.

Explanation:

Looking at the equation we can see that the slope is 4 and the y intercept is 2.

Now we will use the slope that is comprised of the rise over the run which is
(rise)/(run)

The slope is 4 this means that
(rise)/(run) =
(4)/(1) and this shows us that the rise is 4 and the run is 1, so starting at (0,2) you go up 4 and over 1 so our next coordinate would be (1,6)

so the answer is yes, (1,6) is a solution to the inequality y<4x+2.

Hope this helps!
