First of all, you subtract 5 from both sides, and obtain
5+t-5\geq \frac{3}{4}-5
which means
t \geq \frac{3}{4}-5
Now, we only need to compute \frac{3}{4}-5 to finish, and since 5=\frac{20}{4}, we get that \frac{3}{4}-5=\frac{3}{4}-\frac{20}{4}=-\frac{17}{4}.

The answer is thus t\geq -\frac{17}{4}.
