To graph the inequality \( y < x + 5 \):

1. **Identify the boundary line**: The equation \( y = x + 5 \) represents a line that will be our boundary. Since the inequality is strict (using "<"), the line should be dashed to indicate that points on the line are not included in the solution.

2. **Graph the line**:
- Start at the y-intercept (0, 5).
- Use the slope (1) to find another point. From (0, 5), go up 1 unit and right 1 unit to (1, 6).
- Draw a dashed line through these points.

3. **Shade the appropriate half-plane**: Since the inequality is \( y < x + 5 \), you will shade below the line:
- Choose a test point not on the line, such as (0, 0).
- Substitute this point into the inequality: \( 0 < 0 + 5 \) which is true. Therefore, shade the region that contains (0, 0), which is below the line.

Now your graph should show a dashed line for \( y = x + 5 \) with the half-plane below the line shaded.

If you have graphical tools that allow you to turn on shading or move points, be sure to reflect these steps in that interface.
