The given inequality is sqrt(x-3) is equal to or greater than 7.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "We first create the equivalent equation:
\n" ); document.write( "sqrt(x-3) = 7
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Then we solve the equation:
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Squaring both sides of the equation, we have
\n" ); document.write( "(x-3) = 49
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Adding 3 to both sides
\n" ); document.write( "x = 52
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Now we substitute back into the inequality:
\n" ); document.write( "x is any real number equal to or greater than 52. \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
