The correct symbol to replace the question mark in order to make the inequality 3x ? 36 true for the solutions 10, 11, and 12 is ≤ (less than or equal to).

This is because if we plug in 10 for x:
3(10) = 30
Since 30 ≤ 36, the inequality is true for x = 10.

If we then plug in 11 for x:
3(11) = 33
Since 33 ≤ 36, the inequality is true for x = 11.

And finally, if we plug in 12 for x:
3(12) = 36
Since 36 ≤ 36, the inequality is true for x = 12.

Therefore, the symbol ≤ would make the inequality 3x ≤ 36 true for the solutions 10, 11, and 12.
