Collapse the logarithms into one:

\log_3(x+6)+\log_3(x-6)=\log_3((x+6)(x-6))=4

Then write both sides as powers of 3:

3^{\log_3((x+6)(x-6))}=3^4

(x+6)(x-6)=81

Simplify the left side and solve for x:

x^2-36=81

x^2=117

x=\pm\sqrt{117}=\pm3\sqrt{13}

But we're not done yet. Notice that both x+6 and x-6 are negative when x=-3\sqrt{13}. We can't take the logarithm of a negative number (the result isn't real-valued, anyway), so we throw this solution out, and we're left with just

x=3\sqrt{13}
