    exponential equation

    I'm a little lost... I get all messed up when new things get thrown in please help!
    solve
    7*3^x=10-3^x
    it has to be an exact answer... I don't know how to arrive there!

    7 \cdot 3^x = 10 - 3^x<br />

    8 \cdot 3^x = 10

    3^x = \frac{5}{4}

    can you finish?
