To solve the inequality \(15x - \frac{8}{10} \leq -\frac{9}{3}\), we can simplify the expressions and find the value of \(x\) that satisfies the inequality.

First, let's simplify the expression on the left side of the inequality:

\(15x - \frac{8}{10} = 15x - \frac{4}{5}\)

Next, let's simplify the expression on the right side of the inequality:

\(-\frac{9}{3} = -3\)

Now, we have the inequality:

\(15x - \frac{4}{5} \leq -3\)

To isolate the variable \(x\), we can add \(\frac{4}{5}\) to both sides:

\(15x - \frac{4}{5} + \frac{4}{5} \leq -3 + \frac{4}{5}\)

Simplifying further:

\(15x \leq -\frac{15}{5} + \frac{4}{5}\)

\(15x \leq -\frac{11}{5}\)

Finally, we can divide both sides of the inequality by 15 to solve for \(x\):

\(\frac{15x}{15} \leq \frac{-11}{5} \div \frac{15}{1}\)

\(x \leq -\frac{11}{5} \div \frac{15}{1}\)

Simplifying the division:

\(x \leq -\frac{11}{5} \times \frac{1}{15}\)

\(x \leq -\frac{11}{75}\)

Therefore, the solution to the inequality is \(x \leq -\frac{11}{75}\).
