x>=-6, x>2

Explanation:

So you would start by simplifing the left.
You have x+6>=0
You want to simplify to get "x" term to stand alone, so you would have to subtract 6 from both sides
Your answer for that side would be x>=-6

Now you would move onto the right.
You have 3x>x+4
You would want to isolate the "x" term so you would subtract x from both side.
You now have 2x>4
Now you would want to simplify that to get just "x" so you divide both sides by two so you get x>2

Your final answer would be x>=-6, x>2
