The graph should look like this: graph{6x-2 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
with the left side colored in.

Explanation:

First, think of #y>6x-2# as #y=6x-2# and graph the slope, which has the #y# -intercept of -2 and the slope of #6/1# (6 up, 1 to the right)

Then, we plug a value in the inequality(let's go for 1)

#y>6(1)-2# or #y>4#

We see that all the y values are greater than 4 when x is equal to 1, when it is located at the left side of the slope.

Therefore, color in the left side of the slope.
