4(x + 2) - 17 = 35
To solve this equation, we will first expand the brackets:
4x + 8 - 17 = 35
Now, let's simplify:
4x - 9 = 35
Next, let's isolate the variable by adding 9 to both sides:
4x = 44
Finally, we can solve for x by dividing both sides by 4:
x = 11
Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = 11.
The correct option is D. 11.
