First convert the fractions so they have a common denominator (36)
3/12=9/36   4/9=16/36
Then add the whole numbers (as fractions)
9/36+180/36=189/36
16/36+36/36=52/36

189/36-52/36=137/36
Now Simplify
137/36=3 29/36

<em><u>3 29/36</u></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

y =  \sqrt{4x + 6}

{y}^{2}  = 4x + 6

{y}^{2}  - 6 = 4x

\frac{1}{4} ( {y}^{2}  - 6) = x

Swap x and y

\frac{ {x}^{2} - 6 }{4}  = y
