To solve the inequality 2/3x ≤ 5, we need to isolate x. Multiply both sides of the inequality by 3/2 to get x ≤ (5 * 3/2), which simplifies to x ≤ 15/2 or x ≤ 7.5.

Therefore, the correct graph is the one with a closed point plotted on the number line at 7.5 and a leftward arrow indicating that the solution includes all values less than or equal to 7.5.

Response: A number line ranges from negative 10 to 10 with numbers listed in unit increments. A closed point is plotted on the number line at 7.5. A leftward arrow is marked on the number line that originates at the closed circle and goes beyond negative 10.
