Step-by-step solution

Let's begin by focusing on the right side of the equation:

(2x1)(2x+1) (2x-1)(2x+1)

We must first open the parentheses whilst multiplying all the terms as needed:

2x2x+2x1+12x+11 2x\cdot2x+2x\cdot1+-1\cdot2x+-1\cdot1

4x2+2x2x1 4x^2+2x-2x-1
4x21 4x^2-1

Let's now return to the original equation, and move all terms to the same side.

5X2+7x+9=4X21 5X^2+7x+9=4X^2-1
5X24X2+7x+9+1=0 5X^2-4X^2+7x+9+1=0
X2+7X+10=0 X^2+7X+10=0

We are left with a simple quadratic equation, which can be solved using any method we desire (factoring or the quadratic formula).

Therefore the final solution is:

X=2,5 X= -2,-5
