To determine if the number -15 is a solution to the inequality \( x \leq -17 \), we need to check if -15 satisfies the condition of the inequality.
The inequality states that \( x \) must be less than or equal to -17.
-15 is greater than -17 (since -15 is to the right of -17 on the number line).
Therefore, -15 does not satisfy the inequality \( x \leq -17 \).
So, the answer is: **No, -15 is not a solution to the inequality \( x \leq -17 \).**
