To solve the inequality \(2r + 4 \leq 10\), we need to isolate the variable \(r\). This involves two main steps: first, subtract 4 from both sides of the inequality, and then divide both sides by 2 to solve for \(r\).
Step 1: Rewrite the Inequality
We start with the inequality:
\[
2r + 4 \leq 10
\]
Step 2: Isolate the Variable
Subtract 4 from both sides:
\[
2r \leq 10 - 4
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
2r \leq 6
\]
Step 3: Solve for \(r\)
Now, divide both sides by 2:
\[
r \leq \frac{6}{2}
\]
This gives us:
\[
r \leq 3
\]
Final Answer
The solution to the inequality is:
\[
\boxed{(-\infty < r \leq 3)}
\]
