Sorry, but if you have no correct code for the restrictions, you'll have to set your device back to factory settings, without using the backup, the restriction passcode is part of the backup and can't be set back.
If you lose or forget your Restrictions passcode, you'll need to erase your device and then set it up as a new device to remove the Restrictions passcode. Restoring the device using a backup won't remove the passcode.
