\because2x-5\leq x-2

At first, subtract x from both sides


\begin{gathered} \because2x-x-5\leq x-x-2 \\ \therefore x-5\leq-2 \end{gathered}

Now add 5 to both sides


\begin{gathered} \because x-5+5\leq-2+5 \\ \therefore x\leq3 \end{gathered}

The solution is all values of x starting from 3 and smaller than 3

Let us draw the graph
