Consider set S=(a,b):(a+3)t2=3−a and bt2−4t+b=0, where t is a real parameter. Let C be a curve which is formed by all elements of set S where (a,b) is a point in R2. Tangents are drawn from the point P(3,4) to the curve C touching the curve C at point Q and R. If the circumcentre of triangle PQR is (α,β), then the value of α+3β is
