Question

make tables to find the solution to 2^x=4^x-2 take the interger values of x between -4 and 4

Answer 1

you want to set up a table like so:

Answer 2

for each row, evaluate the x value at each function

for example, in row 1 column 2, you would evaluate 2^x for x = -4, and for row 1 column 3, you'd evaluate 4^x - 2

then keep going for x = -3, -2, etc. all the way up to 4

your solution is the x-value where columns 2 and 3 have the same value
