Considering only 1), possible solutions are [11,21,22], [12,18,24] and [13,15,26].
Therefore, 1) alone is insufficient. Eliminate choices A and D.

Considering only 2), possible solutions are [10,20,24], [1,29,24], ....
Therefore, 2) alone is insufficient. Eliminate B.

Consider 1) and 2), [12,18,24] is the only one that satisfies both the conditions (12*2=24 and 12+18=30).

Hence, the answer is C.

Please correct me if there is something wrong.
