To find the range of the quadratic function \( f(x) = 3(x - 10)^2 - 6 \), we first note that this is a parabola that opens upwards (since the coefficient of the squared term, \(3\), is positive).

The function is in vertex form \( f(x) = a(x - h)^2 + k \), where \((h, k)\) is the vertex of the parabola. Here, the vertex is \((10, -6)\).

Since the parabola opens upwards, the minimum value of \( f(x) \) occurs at the vertex. Therefore, the minimum value of \( f(x) \) is \(-6\), which occurs when \(x = 10\).

Thus, the range of the function is:
\[
y \geq -6
\]

The completed inequality is:
**The range of the function is given by the inequality \( y \geq -6 \).**
