The graphical representation of  x+y=5 is given in the graph below.

The line x+y=5 divides the plot into two half-planes.

Select a point (not on the line x+y=5) that lie in one of the half planes, to determine whether the point satisfies the inequality.

Let there be a  point (1,2)

We observe 

1+2<5    i.e. 3<5  , which is true.

Therefore, half-plane (above the line) is not a solution region of given inequality i.e. x+y<5.

Also, the point on the line does not satisfy the inequality.

Thus, the solution to this inequality is half-plane below the line x+y=5 excluding points on this line represented by the shaded part.

This can be represented as follows:
