The next number in the sequence is 20. You are alternately multiplying the previous number by two and then subtracting two.
+6 -5 is the equation. 12 is the answer.
12,7,13,8 etc
42, each number in the sequence is the addition of the previous two: 2-2-4-6-10-16-26 2+2=4 4+6=10 6+10=16 10+16=26 16+26=42
