Answer:
We have the equation:
(ax^2 + 3x + 2b) - (5x^2+bx-3c)= 3x^2 - 9
First, move all to the left side.
(ax^2 + 3x + 2b) - (5x^2+bx-3c) - 3x^2 + 9 = 0
Now let's group togheter terms with the same power of x.
(a - 5 - 3)*x^2 + (3 - b)*x + (2b + 3c + 9) = 0.
This must be zero for all the values of x, then the things inside each parenthesis must be zero.
1)
a - 5 - 3 = 0
a = 3 + 5 = 8.
2)
3 - b = 0
b = 3.
3)
2b + 3c + 9 = 0
2*3 + 3c + 9 = 0
3c = -6 - 9 = -15
c = -15/3 = -5
Then we have:
a = 8, b = 3, c = -5
a + b + c = 8 + 3 - 5 = 6

So,
Let x represent Joe's weight and y represent Jeff's weight.
"Joe weighs 20 lbs. less than twice Jeff's weight."
x = 2y - 20
"If Jeff would gain 10 lbs., then together they would weigh 250 lbs."
(y + 10) + x = 250
We now have our two open sentences.
x = 2y - 20
(y + 10) + x = 250
Get rid of parentheses.
x = 2y - 20
x + y + 10 = 250
We will use Elimination by Substitution.
2y - 20 + y + 10 = 250
Collect Like Terms.
3y - 10 = 250
Add 10 to both sides.
3y = 260
Divide both sides by 3.

Substitute again.

Multiply.

Subtract.

Check.
"Joe weighs 20 lbs. less than twice Jeff's weight."
Jeff's weight times two is 173 and one-third.
20 lbs. less than that is 153 and one-third lbs. Check.
"If Jeff would gain 10 lbs., then together they would weigh 250 lbs."
86 and two-thirds + 10 = 96 and two-thirds.
96 and two-thirds + 153 and one-third equals 250 lbs. Check.
