Answer:

(1,5)

Explanation:

Plug in 3 and 12 (x as 3) (y as 12)

12≥5(3)-2

12≥15-2

12≥13 which is false (Remember ≥ means greater than or equal to but 13 is greater than 12 so that is not true)

Plug in 1 and 5 (x as 1) (y as 5)

5≥5(1)-2

5≥5-2

5≥3 which is true

Answer: (1,5)

Hope this helps
