The minimum value of x will be -14.25.

Explanation:

Let the number be x. Given fifteen subtracted from the product of a number and -4 is at most 32. So, according to this given data, the equation can be written as below,


-4 * x-15 \leq 32

Now first solve this inequality equation,


-4 x \leq 57

Now on dividing and multiplying any equality by a negative number then the equality sign will change as


x \leq\left(-(57)/(4)\right)


x \leq-14.25

So, the minimum value of x will be -14.25.
