Answer

Final Answer: \(v \leq \boxed{6}\)

Steps

Step 1 :Distribute the 7 on the left side and the -3 on the right side of the inequality to get \(-23 + 35 - 7v \leq -3v - 12\).

Step 2 :Combine like terms to get \(12 - 7v \leq -3v - 12\).

Step 3 :Isolate the variable $v$ on one side of the inequality to get \(v = 6\).

Step 4 :Check if this value satisfies the original inequality. Substituting $v = 6$ into the original inequality, we find that it holds true.

Step 5 :Thus, the solution to the inequality is \(v \leq 6\).

Step 6 :Final Answer: \(v \leq \boxed{6}\)
