    Answer: - 1 or + 3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Quadratic equation

    -3 = - x2+2x

    Collect like terms

    X2-2x-3=0

    Factorise

    Values of - 3x = - 3x & + x or + 3x & - x

    So will go with - 3x & + x

    Substitute

    X2-3x+x-3=0

    X (x-3) + 1 (x-3) = 0

    (X+1) (x-3) = 0

    X+1=0

    X = - 1 or

    X-3=0

    X = + 3

    Therefore, X = - 1 or + 3
