Answer:

Correct choice is C

Explanation:

Let x be unknown number.

Three times a number x is
$3\cdot x=3x.$

Three times a number is no less than negative six means that the number
can be equal to -6, can be greater than -6, but cannot be less than -6.

Thus, the inequality that could be used to solve the problem is

$3x\ge -6.$
