$\frac{36}{25}=\frac{6^2}{5^2}=\left(\frac{6}{5}\right)^2=\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{-2}\\\\therefore:\\\\\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{4x}=\left[\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{-2}\right]^{9-x}\\\\\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{4x}=\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{-2(9-x)}\iff4x=-2(9-x)\\\\4x=-2\cdot9-2\cdot(-x)\\\\4x=-18+2x\ \ \ \ \ |subtract\ 2x\ from\ both\ sides\\\\2x=-18\ \ \ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 2\\\\\boxed{x=-9}$

$Use:\\a^{-n}=\left(\frac{1}{a}\right)^n\\\\\left(a^n\right)^m=a^{n\cdot m}\\\\\left(\frac{a}{b} \right)^n=\frac{a^n}{b^n}$
