To find the solution to the given equation, let's simplify it:


\(5x + 21x = -18\)

Combining like terms:


\(26x = -18\)

Dividing both sides by 26:


\[x = -(18)/(26) = -(9)/(13)\]

So, none of the provided answer choices A, B, C, or D contains the correct solution. The correct answer would be
\(-(9)/(13)\).

The probable question maybe:

Given the equation 5x + 21x = -18, which solution set accurately satisfies the equation?

A. -5/6 and 3

B. -6/5 and -3

C. 2 and 1

D. 3 and 4
