    It is easiest to simply just substitute any of the choices into the original equation and see which one satisfies the equation.

    Given the equation: 3 * |5 + x| = 12

    Using choice A. x = 7

    3 * |5 + 7| = 12

    36 = / = 12

    Using choice B. x = 1

    3 * |5 + 1| = 12

    18 = / = 12

    Using choice C. x = - 9

    3 * |5 + - 9| = 12

    12 = 12

    Therefore, the correct answer is C. - 9
