To rewrite \( \log_4(9m^3n) \) using the logarithmic rules, we can break it down using the Product Rule and the Power Rule.

1. **Product Rule**: \( \log_b(xy) = \log_b(x) + \log_b(y) \)
- Here, \( \log_4(9m^3n) = \log_4(9) + \log_4(m^3) + \log_4(n) \)

2. **Power Rule**: \( \log_b(x^k) = k \log_b(x) \)
- Hence, \( \log_4(m^3) = 3\log_4(m) \)
- So now we have \( \log_4(9) + 3\log_4(m) + \log_4(n) \)

This means we can write:
\[ \log_4(9m^3n) = \log_4(9) + 3\log_4(m) + \log_4(n) \]

Now, we need to verify if any of the given options match this expression:

- **Option #1**: \( \log_4(9) - 3\log_4(m) + \log_4(n) \) (Incorrect)

- **Option #2**: \( \log_4(9) + 3\log_4(m) - \log_4(n) \) (Incorrect)

- **Option #3**: \( 3\log_4(9) - \log_4(n) \) (Incorrect)

None of the options provided directly match \( \log_4(9) + 3\log_4(m) + \log_4(n) \).

Based on my analysis, although none of the provided options correspond correctly, if I must choose one that one aligns the closest without verification of signs, I would suggest **Option #2** as it has positive \( \log_4(9) \), but it has the incorrect sign with \( \log_4(n) \).

In conclusion, none of the options accurately represent the original expression, but if forced to pick one based on the workings above, I would select option **#2**.
