Answer:

  n = -2

Eliminating parentheses, you have ...

  2n +6 -6n = 14

Combining terms and subtracting 6, you get ...

  -4n = 8

Dividing by the coefficient of n gives ...

  n = -2

_____

Check

  2(-2) +3(2 -2(-2)) = 14

  -4 +3(2+4) = 14

  -4 +3(6) = 14

  -4 +18 = 14 . . . . answer checks OK
