To solve for x, you need to divide both sides of the inequality by 7 since the variable is multiplied by 7.

7x ≥ -28
x ≥ -28/7
x ≥ -4

Now we can graph the solution on the number line. Since x is greater than or equal to -4, we use a closed circle at -4 and shade to the right to represent all the values greater than -4.
