**Using the Graph to Determine Function Values**

**Problem Statement:**
Use the graph of \( g \) to find \( g(-7) \).

\[ g(-7) = \boxed{ } \]

**Graph Explanation:**
On the right side of the screen, there is a graph with the x-axis and y-axis labeled. The x-axis ranges from -10 to 10, and the y-axis ranges from -6 to 6. The function \( g(x) \) is plotted in blue.

**Function Plot Description:**
- The graph starts at the point (-10, 1).
- It moves horizontally right to the point (-8, 1).
- Then, it rises to the point (-6, 4).
- As it continues, it falls to the point (-2, 1).
- The graph then drops sharply to the point (2, -3).
- Finally, it rises again to the point (4, 1).

**Task:**
To find the value of \( g(-7) \), identify the y-coordinate of the point on the graph where the x-coordinate is -7.

**Instructions:**
1. Locate -7 on the x-axis.
2. Move vertically from -7 to the point on the graph where a blue line intersects.
3. Find the corresponding y-value of this intersection to determine \( g(-7) \).

**Result:**
Input the y-value in the box provided for \( g(-7) \).
