we have
an= 2(an-1) -x

we have
a5= 99
or an= 2(an-1) -x
or 99=2a4-x---------------eqn 1

a3=27
or an= 2(an-1) -x
or a4=2a3-x
or a4=54-x

substitute this value is eqn 1
we get x = 3

Ans is A

I also got E
Statement 1.
w + c > 50
here the possible values for w and c are (-5,60), (5,55)

Statement 2.
c > 48
says nothing about W
insufficient

Combining both
when c = 49, w=6
when c= 55, w= -3

How come C is the answer....?
I am pretty sure that E is the answer......
