To graph the inequality x ≤ 5, we can follow these steps:
1. Draw a number line and label it with the values from negative infinity to positive infinity.
2. On the number line, mark the point 5 with a solid dot to represent the "equal to" part of the inequality.
3. Since x is less than or equal to 5, shade the region to the left of the marked point (including the marked point) to represent all the values less than or equal to 5.
Here is the graph of the inequality x ≤ 5:
