To solve the equation \( \sqrt{2x} + 13 = 27 \), we can follow these steps:

1. Subtract 13 from both sides:
\[
\sqrt{2x} = 27 - 13
\]
\[
\sqrt{2x} = 14
\]

2. Square both sides to eliminate the square root:
\[
2x = 14^2
\]
\[
2x = 196
\]

3. Divide both sides by 2:
\[
x = \frac{196}{2}
\]
\[
x = 98
\]

Now, let's check the provided options: 49, 25, 9, and 16. None of these values equals 98, which means none of these options make the equation true.

If you meant to ask for a different equation or different values, please clarify, but based on the information given, none of the provided options are correct.
