To replace \( x \) with 2 in the equation \( 3x + y = 15 \):

1. Start with the equation:
\[
3x + y = 15
\]

2. Substitute \( x = 2 \) into the equation:
\[
3(2) + y = 15
\]

3. Calculate \( 3(2) \):
\[
6 + y = 15
\]

4. Solve for \( y \) by subtracting 6 from both sides:
\[
y = 15 - 6
\]
\[
y = 9
\]

So, when \( x = 2 \), \( y = 9 \).
