It is an advanced level exponential equation.
Nevertheless, it is SOLVABLE (!), and I will show you how.
4^(x+1.5) + 9^(x+0.5) = 10×6^x (1)
It is equivalent to
2^(2x+3) + 3^(2x+1) = 10*(2^x)*(3^x), or
8*2^(2x) + 3*3^(2x) = 10*(2^x)*(3^x). (2)
Introduce new variables u = 2^x, v = 3^x. Then equation (2) takes the form
8u^2 + 3v^2 = 10uv
Divide both sides by v^2. You will get
+ 3 - = 0 (3)
Let z = . Then equation (3) takes the form
8z^2 - 10z + 3 = 0.
Solve this quadratic equation using the quadratic formula
= = .
The roots are
= = = , and
= = = .
Thus, we should consider two cases.
(a) = .
It means = = .
Next you can take any logarithm, log base 10, or natural logarithm "ln" to continue
= ,
=
x = = = 0.709511 (approximately).
The first case is completed.
Similarly, you can consider and complete the second case = .
May I leave it to you, in order for you completed it on your own ?
If you still will have questions, let me know.
Come again to this forum soon to learn something new (!)

As an accurate person, I checked my answer.
I used MS Excel in my computer and calculated the left side and the right side expressions of the original equation at x= 0.709511.
I got the value of 35.65389 on the left side and the value of 35.65389 on the right side.
