First, substitute 6 for x:-
![\bold{3(6)+(6)/(y) y^2}](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/high-school/k9hg2c3hjdqdzs6hycvw1zbkgoyn1nozcp.png)
Now, write -4 in lieu of y:-
![\bold{18+(6)/(-4) (-4)^2}](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/high-school/x8mdvaw3ff7i0my0i7sy9hsf4s57s88uju.png)
On simplification,
![\bold{18+(6)/(-4) *16}](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/high-school/y6pt0ygqofomu2yoe039169f3uo985b0bf.png)
On further simplification,
![\bold{18+(3)/(-2) *16}](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/high-school/6e0l7u3tiea4di4jt855m27hlu2hy9e892.png)
Which results in
![\dashrightarrow\bigstar\star\boxed{\boxed{\bold{\underline{-6}}}}\dashleftarrow](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/high-school/pi7pvnp4jehljovgbmijprox5eqffr4dn9.png)
Good luck.
