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

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

2. Divide both sides by 11:
\[
x = \frac{53}{11}
\]
\[
x \approx 4.818
\]

Since none of the listed responses are exact matches, we can round \( x \) to the nearest whole number, which could give us 5.

Therefore, the best estimate from the options listed is:
