e^x-2-12^2x+3=0

You have a -2 and a +3 in that equation. Why don't you combine them? Or is (x-2) supposed to be an exponent of e?

If you are only studying algebra, I am surprised that they are teaching you to use e = 2.71828...

You should use parentheses to clarify what the exponents are in your equation.

In any case, it appears to be a transcendental equation that will have to be solved by graphing or iteration.
e^(x-2)-12^(2x+3)=0
