To solve the inequality, we can start by simplifying it:
−3(4k+1) < 15
Multiplying through the parentheses:
-12k - 3 < 15
Next, we can add 3 to both sides of the inequality:
-12k < 18
Finally, dividing both sides by -12, remembering to flip the inequality sign because we are dividing by a negative number:
k > -18/12
Simplifying the fraction:
k > -3/2
So, any value of k that is greater than -3/2 falls in the solution set of the inequality. Therefore, the answer is positive 1.
