You can put this solution on YOUR website!
I'm not sure what you want to do here. Do you want to evaluate \"3%28x-5%29\" when \"x%5E2=49\" ?\r

\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If so, then solve \"x%5E2=49\" to get \"x=7\" or \"x=-7\" and then simply plug those values into \"3%28x-5%29\" to get \"3%287-5%29=3%282%29=6\" or \"3%28-7-5%29=3%28-12%29=-36\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
