$$2^3+2^2-16\cdot2-6 = 0$$
Answer
This equation has no solution.
Explanation
$$ \begin{aligned} 2^3+2^2-16\cdot2-6 &= 0&& \text{simplify left side} \\[1 em]2^3+2^2-32-6 &= 0&& \\[1 em]8+4-32-6 &= 0&& \\[1 em]-26 &= 0&& \\[1 em] \end{aligned} $$
Since the statement $ \color{red}{ -26 = 0 } $ is FALSE, we conclude that the equation has no solution.
