It is nice explanation but that problem could never be a Math Olympiad problem!!

9^(x+2) =36 log36 base 9 = x+2 log 9 base 9 + log 4 base 9 =x + 2 1+ log 4 base 9 =x+2 log4 base 9 - 1= x

Great detail. However, you could make the verification easier if you stopped at log(4)/log(9)=log_9(4) since the equation uses a 9 base. 9^(log_9(4)-1+2)=9^(log_9(4)+1)=4*9=36
