          2        
45*(x + 1)  = 243*x
$$45 \left(x + 1\right)^{2} = 243 x$$
Detail solution
Move right part of the equation to
left part with negative sign.

The equation is transformed from
$$45 \left(x + 1\right)^{2} = 243 x$$
to
$$- 243 x + 45 \left(x + 1\right)^{2} = 0$$
Expand the expression in the equation
$$- 243 x + 45 \left(x + 1\right)^{2} = 0$$
We get the quadratic equation
$$45 x^{2} - 153 x + 45 = 0$$
This equation is of the form
a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0

A quadratic equation can be solved
using the discriminant.
The roots of the quadratic equation:
$$x_{1} = \frac{\sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
$$x_{2} = \frac{- \sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
where D = b^2 - 4*a*c - it is the discriminant.
Because
$$a = 45$$
$$b = -153$$
$$c = 45$$
, then
D = b^2 - 4 * a * c = 

(-153)^2 - 4 * (45) * (45) = 15309

Because D > 0, then the equation has two roots.
x1 = (-b + sqrt(D)) / (2*a)

x2 = (-b - sqrt(D)) / (2*a)

or
$$x_{1} = \frac{3 \sqrt{21}}{10} + \frac{17}{10}$$
$$x_{2} = \frac{17}{10} - \frac{3 \sqrt{21}}{10}$$
