Answer

$r(v)=\left(\frac{1}{3}+\pi\right) v^2+\frac{1}{5} v+\frac{5 \sqrt{2}-9}{15}$

Work Step by Step

We have $$ \begin{aligned} r(v) & =\frac{v^2+\sqrt{2}}{3}+\frac{v-3}{5}+\pi v^2 \\ & =\frac{1}{3} v^2+\frac{\sqrt{2}}{3}+\frac{v}{5}-\frac{3}{5}+\pi v^2 \\ & =\frac{1}{3} v^2+\pi v^2+\frac{1}{5} v+\frac{\sqrt{2}}{3}-\frac{3}{5} \\ & =\left(\frac{1}{3}+\pi\right) v^2+\frac{1}{5} v+\frac{5 \sqrt{2}-9}{15} \end{aligned} $$ so $a=1 / 3+\pi, b=1 / 5, c=(5 \sqrt{2}-9) / 15$
