Answer 1

To solve the equation \( 11x + 29 = 82 \), we can follow these steps:

1. Subtract 29 from both sides: \[ 11x = 82 - 29 \] \[ 11x = 53 \]

2. Now divide both sides by 11: \[ x = \frac{53}{11} \] \[ x \approx 4.82 \]

After estimating, the closest integer value among the provided responses is 5. Therefore, the estimated value of \( x \) is:
