To solve the inequality \(-4f - 3 \geq 65\), follow these steps:
-
Add 3 to both sides: \[ -4f - 3 + 3 \geq 65 + 3 \] This simplifies to: \[ -4f \geq 68 \]
-
Divide both sides by -4: Remember that when you divide or multiply both sides of an inequality by a negative number, you must reverse the inequality sign. \[ f \leq \frac{68}{-4} \] This simplifies to: \[ f \leq -17 \]
So the solution to the inequality is: \[ \boxed{f \leq -17} \]
