Standard form for an equation like this is:

Note the zero on one side. So we start by getting one side of

to be a zero. The easiest thing is to add -3 to each side:

We can now "read" the values for a, b and c:
a = 1
b = 6
c = -3

Solving the equation with the Quadratic Formula we get:

which simplifies as follows:










In long form this is:
or
These are the simplified, exact expressions for the solutions to your equation.
