Answer:

[tex]9.25[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

[tex]15-2(3-2x)=46[/tex]

First, distribute the -2:

[tex]15-2(3)-2(-2x)=46[/tex]

Multiply:

[tex]15-6+4x=46[/tex]

Subtract:

[tex]9+4x=46[/tex]

Subtract 9 from both sides:

[tex]4x=37[/tex]

Divide both sides by 4:

[tex]x=37/4=9.25[/tex]

And we're done!
