f(x) = g(x) I don't think has any meaning for this question. I will just solve the equation.
Solution
7x - 12 = - 3x + 10 Add 3x to both sides
7x + 3x -12 = - 3x + 3x +10 Combine
10x - 12 = 10 Add 12 to both sides
10x -12 + 12 = 10 + 12 Combine
10x = 22 Divide by 10
10x/10 = 22/10
x = 2.2

I've already been complemented twice on my previous answer, but then I discovered that I mis-read the question. My entire original answer was wrong, and I have to delete it.
I don't believe that any number can satisfy both of those conditions.
I'll say the question has no answer.
If the one for $175 is 10% off, that means Fiana pays 90% of the price
175 * 0.9 = $157.50
It is too expensive because 157.50 is more than the 150 Fiana has.
The second bike for $225 is 35% off which means Fiana pays 65% of the price.
225 * 0.65 = $146.25
She CAN afford the bike for $225
If 2 of 12 eggs are cracked, then 10 are not cracked.
SO
10/12=5/6=about 0.83
0.83 of total eggs not cracked is also equivalent to 83 percent as asked in the problem :)
