![### Problem Description
Consider the function \( f(x, y) \) defined as follows:
\[ f(x, y) = \sqrt{4x^2 + 2y^2} \]
We are tasked with finding the partial derivative of the function with respect to \( x \) at the point \( (-3, 1) \).
---
### Task
Compute the partial derivative of \( f(x, y) \) with respect to \( x \):
\[ f_x (-3, 1) = \]
