You can put this solution on YOUR website!
When you see a coordinate pair like (2,3) you must realize, x=2 and y=3. So all you need to do is apply the inequality to each coordinate pair to find one that satisfies the inequality.
I'll check A for you, follow the same procedure for the others:
(-3, 1) ==> x = -3, y = 1
2x+5 = 2(-3)+5 = -6 + 5 = -1 this does NOT satisfy y ≤ 𝟐𝒙 + 𝟓
because y = 1 and 1 is greater than -1.
