Answer:

(-∞, -4]

Explanation:

4x - 1 < -15

4x < -14

x < -14/4

x < -7/2

So the solution to the inequality is x < -7/2. This means that all integer values of x that make the inequality true are the integers less than -7/2. In interval notation, we can write this as:

(-∞, -4]

Answer: [-∞, -4]

Explanation:

Given inequality

4x - 1 < -15

Add 1 on both sides

4x - 1 + 1 < -15 + 1

4x < -14

Divide 4 on both sides

4x / 4 < -14 / 4

x < -3.5

Since, -3.5 is not an integer and the interval needs to be less than -3.5.

The closest integer that is less than -3.5 is -4.

Therefore, all integers [-∞, -4] fulfill this inequality.

Hope this helps!! :)
