To graph it, just graph 
and 
and see where they intersect
I would like to solve it by using math and not graphing
if you don't want to see the math, just don't scroll down
the graphical meathod is above, first line, just read it
hmm
multiply both sides by -1
multiply both sides by
minus 1 from both sides and minus 6(3^x) from both sides
use u subsitution
we can rewrite it as
now factor
I mean use quadratic formula
for
so for 0=u^2-16u-1, a=1, b=-16, c=-1
remember that u=3^x so u>0
if we have u=8+√65, it's fine, but u=8-√65 is negative and not allowed
so therfor
if you take the log base 3 of both sides you get
if you use ln then
then

Check the picture below.
now, bear in mind that, there are 60minutes in 1 degree, so 23' is just 23/60 degrees or about 0.38 degrees.
and 29' is just 29/60 degrees or about 0.48 degrees.
so 16°23' is about 16.38°, and 49°29' is about 49.48°
make sure your calculator is in Degree mode.
