That's not really pasteable as such.

M-x refers to pressing Meta-x (for a terminal this may not be available
without special configuration) or Esc followed by x. <RET> is the Return
key.

So:  press Esc, x (minibuffer shows "M-x "), type "package-install", press
Return, type "haskell-mode", press Return. (If you have configured Terminal
to use Option for Meta --- this is not default as it disables
internationalization --- then you can press Option-x instead of Esc
followed by x.)
