You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Just substitute \"+x+%2B+h+\" for \"+x+\" in the 1st
\n" ); document.write( "function everywhere you see \"+x+\", then
\n" ); document.write( "do the required algebra
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "given:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+f%28x%29+=+3x+-+1+\"
\n" ); document.write( "find:
