would the answer be

Ba2SO4^2+Na(NO3)2^2

No. I may be mistaken but I think you are changing the subscripts to make the equation balance. That is not allowed. YOu may change ONLY the coefficients.
You do form BaSO4 and NaNO3.
The valence of Ba is +2 and valence of sulfate is -2 so the formula is BaSO4. For NaNO3 the Na is +1 and the NO3^- polyatomic ion is -1 so the formula is NaNO3. Knowing the correct formulas try balancing change only the coefficients.
