The solution is #x in]-3,+oo[#

Explanation:

Let's rewrite the inequality

#6/(x+3)>=1/(x+3)#

#6/(x+3)-1/(x+3)>=0#

#5/(x+3)>=0#

This is a simple sign chart

#color(white)(aaaa)##x##color(white)(aaaaaa)##-oo##color(white)(aaaaaaa)##-3##color(white)(aaaaaaa)##+oo#

#color(white)(aaaa)##x+3##color(white)(aaaaaaa)##-##color(white)(aaaaa)##||##color(white)(aaaa)##+#

Therefore,

The solution is #x in]-3,+oo[#
