The inequality simplifies to #y <=5#

Explanation:

First write the equation with a single #y#.

#5y +8 <= 33" "rarr 5y <=33-8" "rarr 5y <=25#

The equation simplifies to #y <=5#

All horizontal lines have the equation: #y = " 'a number' "#

The inequality has a solid horizontal line and a shaded area below the line. (y can be equal to 5 as well as being a value less than 5.)
