            I read and understand your request as if you want me to sketch three independent graphs in three separate plots.

            (not one sketch for all three inequalities).


(A)  y < -4.


     The line y = -4 is horizontal line parallel to x-axis.

     It is located 4 units below x-axis.

     The solution to this inequality is half-plane in (x,y)-coordinate plane,

     whose points are all located below the line y = -4, not including the line itself.


     Having this description, you can sketch the solution set by shading the region below the line y = -4,
     not including the points on the line itself.


     It means that on the sketch, line y = -4 should be shown as a dotted line.



(B)  x >= 5.


     The line x = 5 is vertical line parallel to y-axis.

     It is located 5 units to the right of y-axis.

     The solution to this inequality is half-plane in (x,y)-coordinate plane,

     whose points are all located to the right of the line x = 5, including this line itself.


     Having this description, you can sketch the solution set by shading the region to the right of the line x = 5,
     including the points on the line itself.


     It means that on the sketch, line x = 5 should be shown as a solid line.



(C)  The given inequality  y-7 <= 0  is the same (is EQUIVALENT) to THIS inequality  y <= 7.


     The line y = 7 is horizontal line parallel to x-axis.

     It is located 7 units above x-axis.

     The solution to this inequality is half-plane in (x,y)-coordinate plane,
     whose points are all located below the line y = 7.


     Having this description, you can sketch the solution set by shading the region below the line y = 7,
     including the points on the line itself.


     It means that on the sketch, line y = 7 should be shown as a solid line.

Solved.

Having my response and descriptions,  you can make plots / (sketches) on your own.

I definitely don't want make these sketches for you or instead of you,  since it is not the method to teach.

Now you are ready to complete the job on your own, because you have all necessary words in your mouth
and all necessary explanations/instructions in your mind.
