See a solution process below:

Multiply each side of the equation by #color(red)(5)# to solve for #g# while keeping the equation balanced:

#color(red)(5) xx 1/5g >= color(red)(5) xx -4#

#cancel(color(red)(5)) xx 1/color(red)(cancel(color(black)(5)))g >= -20#

#g >= -20#

#g>=20#

Multiply the equation by 5 to isolate #g#

#1/5g*5>=-4*5#

#g>=20#

Answer : Any value of #g# above or equal to 20 would satisfy this equation.
