    Write $y=2^{(sin{x})^2}$, you want the number of solutions to $y(x)+10/y(x)=7$. So I suggest that you find the solutions to $y+10/y=7$ and then find out how many $x$ give those values.

Put $;t=sin x;$, then the equation becomes



$$2^{t^2}+5cdot 2^{1-t^2}=7iff2^{2t^2}-7cdot 2^{t^2}+10=0$$



Put now $;y:=2^{t^2};$ and get the quadratic



$$y^2-7y+10=0implies (y-5)(y-2)=0impliesbegin{cases}5=y_1=2^{t^2}implies t^2=frac{log5}{log2}...etc.\{}\
2=y_2=2^{t^2}implies t^2=1...etc.end{cases}$$



Observe that $;t=sin x;$ and thus only one of the above two options for $;t^2;$ is possible...end now the exercise.
