Simply shade the portion of the number line from -5 to 5 and include the endpoints (by use of closed circles) like so:

Graph of the solution set

Note:
There is a closed circle at x=-5 which means that we're including this value in the solution set
Also, there is a closed circle at x=5 which means that we're including this value in the solution set.


From the graph, we can see that every number that lies in the blue region is at most 5 units away from 0.
