Answer: Option B

We are given the following inequality expression


\begin{gathered} -2(x\text{ + 3) }\leq\text{ -12} \\ \text{Firstly, open the parenthesis} \\ -2\cdot\text{ x - 2 }\cdot\text{ 3 }\leq-12 \\ -2x\text{ - 6 }\leq\text{ -12} \\ \text{Collect the like terms} \\ -2x\text{ }\leq\text{ -12 + 6} \\ -2x\text{ }\leq\text{ -6} \\ \text{Divide both sides by -2} \\ -(2x)/(-2)\text{ }\ge\text{ -6/-2} \\ x\text{ }\ge\text{ 3} \end{gathered}

The answer is option B
