Let's use the quadratic formula to solve for x:
Starting with the general quadratic



the general form of the quadratic equation is:



So lets solve (notice , , and )

Plug in a=-1, b=3, and c=3



Square 3 to get 9



Multiply to get



Combine like terms in the radicand (everything under the square root)



Simplify the square root



Multiply 2 and -1 to get -2

So now the expression breaks down into two parts

or


Which approximate to

or


So our solutions are:
or

Notice when we graph we get:



when we use the root finder feature on a calculator, we find that and .So this verifies our answer

--------------
It looks like you were trying to apply the quadratic formula. But
that is not the easiest way to find ordered pairs.
-----------
Getting ordered Pairs:
1st: pick a value for "x".
2nd: substitute that value of x into the equation to find the corresponding
value for y.
----------
For example:
If x=0, y= -0^2+4*0+3 = 3, giving you the ordered pair (0,3)
If x=1, y= -1^2+4*1+3 = 6, giving you the ordered pair (1,6)
etc.
