See below for explanation

If you are able to graph a regular linear equation, then simply transpose the equation so that y is the subject.

$- 2 y \geq - 10 - 5 x$ $-2yge-10-5x$
$y \leq 5 - \frac{5}{2} x$ $yle5-5/2x$

Remember that when you divide by a negative number you have the change the direction of the inequality sign

Now graph the function $y = 5 - \frac{5}{2} x$ $y=5-5/2x$ and then shade the area below the line to indicate a less than.

graph{yle5-5/2x [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
