First, it would help to simplify each side more:
Left side: 36 + 3(4x - 9) = 36 + 12x - 27 = 12x + 9
Right side: c(2x + 1) + 25 = 2cx + c + 25
Write the simplified equation:
12x + 9 = 2cx + c + 25
Usually when there is no solution, the coefficients of the variable on both sides are the same, so we can make the coefficient if x on the right side into 12:
2cx >>> 12x
Then, c must equal 6 to make this true.
The answer is choice (C).

Answer:
13, 18, 72
Step-by-step explanation:
let x-5 represent the first number, since the first number is 5 less than the third number. let x represent the third number. let 4x represent the third number, since it's four times greater than the third number. 
set up an equation, and make it equal to 103:
x-5+x+4x=103
solve:
6x-5=103
6x=108
x=18
so, the third number is 18.
the first number is equal to x-5, so:
18-5=13
the second number is equal to 4x, so:
4(18)=72
so, the three numbers are 13, 18, and 72.
 
        
             
        
        
        
1. Add 4 to both sides of the equation 
2. Simplify 
3. Divide both sides of the equation by 5
4. Simplify 
5. x= 5
