6x+5 = (3x^2 + 5x + 4)/x
6x^2 + 5x = 3x^2 + 5x + 4
3x^2 = 4
x = +/- 2sqrt(3)/3 (The x values of the tangency points)

Your equations are therefore:

y = (4sqrt(3)+5)x + 3
y = (-4sqrt(3)+5)x + 3

How about doing your own homework instead of being on the Internet.

f'(x) = 6x + 5
y-y1=m(x-x1)
=> y-3=m(x)
lets find m1 m2 by takin x=0,1
=> y-3=5x
y-3=11x
(wild guess, haha)
