The given inequality is sqrt(x-3) is equal to or greater than 7.

We first create the equivalent equation:
sqrt(x-3) = 7
.
Then we solve the equation:

Squaring both sides of the equation, we have
(x-3) = 49

Adding 3 to both sides
x = 52
.
Now we substitute back into the inequality:
x is any real number equal to or greater than 52.
