Tricky Need practice Help please

I don't understand these problems well I do but not these ones 9^(x^2+1)=(27)^x (3)^2x
What I have done is changed all the bases to 3 so (3^3)^(x^2+1)=(3^3) (3)^2x but I don't know what to do next I tried solving for x after simplifying the above and got to the point where the exponents simplify to x^2+3=0 not sure if this is right someone please help me these are exercise problems.

9^(x^2+1) to (3^2)^(x^2+1), not (3^3)^(x^2+1) :smile:
