its either A or C i know that

It's A.

You've got 3 as a coefficient on both sides, so you can divide both sides by 3 to cancel them out. Then you've got:

x + 4 = x - 5

You know that this can't have a solution because there is no value x where if you add 4 to it and subtract 5 from it, you'll get the same thing.

So, the problem with the equation is that the x values have to be the same, but the constant numbers added/subtracted are different.
