Graph the line #y=2#, and shade in the area where #y>2#

Explanation:

Graph the straight line #y=2#, which is simply a horizontal line at #2# on the #y# axis. Since #y>2#, we need to shade the area above the line, because the area above the line is where #y>2#. Lastly the line must be dotted/dashed, it can't be a straight line, this is done to represent that #y≠2#
