Suppose you can factorize:

ax^2+bx+c=a(x-r_1)(x-r_2)

Then by expanding the right side, you have

ax^2+bx+c=a(x^2-(r_1+r_2)x+r_1r_2)=ax^2-a(r_1+r_2)x+ar_1r_2

which means in this case, you have to have

\begin{cases}6=-2(r_1+r_2)\\-8=2r_1r_2\end{cases}\implies\begin{cases}r_1+r_2=-3\\r_1r_2=-4\end{cases}

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

Circumference is about 185.26 cm.

Area is about 2732.585 cm^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference = 2πr

2 x 3.14 x 29.5 = 185.26

Area of a circle = πr^{2}

3.14 x 29.5 x 29.5 = 2732.585
