4x^{2}+9=81-36x+4x^{2}
Use binomial theorem \left(a-b\right)^{2}=a^{2}-2ab+b^{2} to expand \left(9-2x\right)^{2}.
4x^{2}+9+36x=81+4x^{2}
Add 36x to both sides.
4x^{2}+9+36x-4x^{2}=81
Subtract 4x^{2} from both sides.
9+36x=81
Combine 4x^{2} and -4x^{2} to get 0.
36x=81-9
Subtract 9 from both sides.
36x=72
Subtract 9 from 81 to get 72.
x=\frac{72}{36}
Divide both sides by 36.
x=2
Divide 72 by 36 to get 2.
