                How do I put these into equations?
Five times the difference of a number and two is seven more than that number.
Twice a number decreased by two is equivalent to than number increased by five.

    x = your number(s)
Five times the difference of a number and two
is seven more than that number mean:
5 ( x - 2 ) = 7 + x
Twice a number decreased by two is equivalent
to than number increased by five mean:
2 ( x - 2 ) = x + 5
Try to solve this two equations.

    "Twice a number decreased by two is equivalent 
to that number increased by five"
my interpretation instead of what Bosnian had:
2x - 2 = x + 5
    
to that number increased by five"
