[Axiom-mail] eval function |

I'm trying to do the following:
1) In the axiom command line, I enter a ponynomial: f:=-(37/84)*x^2 -
(7/12)*x -1/42
2) Find the roots: x12:=radicalSolve(f,x)
3) Trying to evaluate the polynomial 12x^3 + 5x^2 + 11x + 16:
g:=12*x^3 + 5*x^2 + 11*x + 16
eval(f,x,x12.1)
Then I get the error:
There are 15 exposed and 1 unexposed library operations named eval
having 3 argument(s) but none was determined to be applicable.
Use HyperDoc Browse, or issue
)display op eval
to learn more about the available operations. Perhaps
package-calling the operation or using coercions on the arguments
will allow you to apply the operation.
Cannot find a definition or applicable library operation named eval
with argument type(s)
Polynomial Integer
Variable x
Equation Expression Integer
Perhaps you should use "@" to indicate the required return type,
or "$" to specify which version of the function you need.
Can somebody tell me how to convert the type of x12.1 to something
that eval will do the work with?
thanks
