$${t}={x}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{2}\geqslant\mathrm{2} \\ $$$$\mathrm{4}{t}+\frac{\mathrm{9}}{{t}}\:{is}\:{increasing}\:{for}\:{t}\geqslant\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{2}}. \\ $$$$\left(\mathrm{4}{t}+\frac{\mathrm{9}}{{t}}\right)_{{min}} =\mathrm{4}×\mathrm{2}+\frac{\mathrm{9}}{\mathrm{2}}=\frac{\mathrm{25}}{\mathrm{2}}=\mathrm{12}.\mathrm{5} \\ $$
