Answer:


x\leq 1

Alternative forms:


x\in\left(-\infty,\left.\ 1\right]\right.

Explanation:


-3(x+1)\geq -6

Apply the Distributive Property


-3x-3\geq -6

Rearrange variables to the left side of the equation


-3x\geq -6+3

Calculate the sum or difference


-3x\geq -3

Divide both sides of the inequality by the coefficient of variable


x\leq (-3)/(-3)

Determine the sign for multiplication or division


x\leq (3)/(3)

Cross out the common factor


x\leq 1

I hope this helps you

:)
