To solve the inequality \(-3(4k + 1) < 15\), we will first distribute the \(-3\):
\[
-12k - 3 < 15
\]
Next, we will add \(3\) to both sides:
\[
-12k < 18
\]
Now, we will divide both sides by \(-12\). Remember that when we divide by a negative number, we need to reverse the inequality sign:
\[
k > -\frac{3}{2}
\]
Now, we need to find which values fall within this solution set \(k > -\frac{3}{2}\). The provided options are:
- \(-1\)
- \(-5\)
- \(-32\)
- \(-\frac{3}{2}\)
- \(-4\)
The value that satisfies \(k > -\frac{3}{2}\) is:
\(-1\)
Thus, the correct response is:
**−1**
