Answer:

6 Newtons to the left.

Explanation:

We can convert  this into a generic algebra equation by giving directions positive and negative values.

The 6 will be positive, and the 10 and 2 will be negative.

Add 10 and 2 to have 12.

6-12 = -6.

Therefore you have 6 newtons to the left (negative).

Take the force towards the right as positive (+6N) and towards the left as negative (-12N)
Add both as net force is the sum of all forces acting on an object
6N+(-12N)= -6N
