i believe that the answer is going to be 34

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be [tex]x[/tex]. We set up an equation to get

[tex]2x-14=6[/tex].

Adding 14 to both sides gives

[tex]2x=20[/tex],

and dividing both sides by 2 we have

[tex]x=10.[/tex]

Hence, the number is [tex]\boxed{10}[/tex].
