See a solution process below:

Explanation:

Subtract #color(red)(5)# from each side of the inequality to solve for #c# while keeping the inequality balanced:

#-color(red)(5) + 5 + x <= -color(red)(5) + 1#

#0 + x <= -4#

#x <= -4#

To graph this we draw a solid vertical line at #-4# on the x axis. The line is solid to indicate the inequality is a "less than or equal to" operator and includes the value #-4#. Then you shade to the left of the line to indicated the "less than":

graph{x <= -4 [-10, 5, -5, 5]}
