    Let unknown integer be n.

    So then your sentence would translate to 3n² + n = 2.

    If you need to solve for n then we can move 2 to left side by subtract both sides by 2:

    3n² + n - 2 = 0

    Now you can factor:

    3n² + 3n - 2n - 2 = 0

    3n (n + 1) - 2 (n + 1) = 0

    (3n - 2) (n + 1) = 0

    3n - 2 = 0 OR n + 1 = 0

    3n = 2 OR n = - 1

    n = 2/3 OR n = - 1

    Final answer: n = 2/3 OR n = - 1
