Solved by pluggable solver: SOLVE quadratic equation with variable
Quadratic equation aYouareawinner%21%5E2%2BbYouareawinner%21%2Bc=0 (in our case 1Youareawinner%21%5E2%2B-2Youareawinner%21%2B-3+=+0) has the following solutons:

Youareawinner%21%5B12%5D+=+%28b%2B-sqrt%28+b%5E2-4ac+%29%29%2F2%5Ca

For these solutions to exist, the discriminant b%5E2-4ac should not be a negative number.

First, we need to compute the discriminant b%5E2-4ac: b%5E2-4ac=%28-2%29%5E2-4%2A1%2A-3=16.

Discriminant d=16 is greater than zero. That means that there are two solutions: +x%5B12%5D+=+%28--2%2B-sqrt%28+16+%29%29%2F2%5Ca.

Youareawinner%21%5B1%5D+=+%28-%28-2%29%2Bsqrt%28+16+%29%29%2F2%5C1+=+3
Youareawinner%21%5B2%5D+=+%28-%28-2%29-sqrt%28+16+%29%29%2F2%5C1+=+-1

Quadratic expression 1Youareawinner%21%5E2%2B-2Youareawinner%21%2B-3 can be factored:

Again, the answer is: 3, -1. Here's your graph:
