Consider the given equation is
3-2x=15 and one of the 6 in the options is -6.

Given:

The equation is


3-2x=15

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

We have,


3-2x=15

Subtracting 3 from both sides, we get


3-2x-3=15-3


-2x=12

Divide both sides by -2.


x=(12)/(-2)


x=-6

Therefore, the value of x is -6.
