Isolate the x's on one side and everything without x on the other
7^x-2=12^x
Subtract 7x from both sides.\[7x-2=12x\] \[-2=5x\] Divide by 5 \[x={-2\over 5}\] and @josettestuff is correct, -2/5 is -0.4 as a decimal
That makes things more fun.
Ok so the question is \[\huge 7^x-2=12^x\]?

This question cannot be solved as is...It has to be 7^(x-2)=12^x. If that's the case, the answer would be -7.22. You need to put the "^" and parentheses or else people won't understand the question.
