Answer:

n = 1

Explanation:

-12 = -6(-8n + 6) + 8(-4 + n)

multiply our right side:

-12 = 48n - 36 -32 + 8n

combine n terms on right side:

-12 = 56n - 36 -32

combine numbers on right side:

-12 = 56n - 68

add 68 to both sides:

-12 + 68 = 56n - 68 + 68

56 = 56n

divide both sides by 56:

56/56 = 56n/56

n = 1

check:

-12 = -6(-8(1) + 6) + 8(-4 + (1))

-12 = -6(-8 + 6) + 8(-3)

-12 = -6(-2) + 8(-3)

-12 = 12 - 24

-12 = -12
