The hint.

Use the following substitution.

$$\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^{\frac{x}{2}}=t$$

dividing by $3^{x/2}$ we get $$4\cdot 3^{x/2}-9\frac{2^x}{3^{x/2}}=5\cdot 2^{x/2}$$ dividing by $2^{x/2}$ we get $$4\cdot \left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^{x/2}-9\cdot \left(\frac{2}{3}\right)^{x/2}=5$$ Setting $$u=\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^{x/2}$$ then we get $$4u-\frac{9}{u}=5$$ can you finish?
