Answer:
[tex]n=\pm 6\sqrt{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
It may work well to divide by 6, subtract 2, and multiply by -1 before you take the square root.
[tex]12-6n^2=-420\\2-n^2=-70 \qquad\text{divide by 6}\\-n^2=-72 \qquad\text{subtract 2}\\n^2=72 \qquad\text{multiply by -1}\\\\n=\pm\sqrt{36\cdot 2} \qquad\text{take the square root}\\\\n=\pm 6\sqrt{2} \qquad\text{simplify}[/tex]
