For what values of x would the triangle have a perimeter of at least 72 inches, if the second side is 11 more than the first side and the last side is 5 more than twice the first side? (Express your answer as an inequality)
---------------------
1st side:: x inches
2nd side:: x+11 inches
3rd side:: 2x+5 inches
----
Inequality::
x + x+ 11 + 2x+5 >= 72
4x + 16 >= 72
4x >= 56
x >= 14
