To solve the given equation, we simplify it step by step:

4(x + 5) - 5 = 8 + 18

4x + 20 - 5 = 8 + 18

4x + 15 = 26

Subtracting 15 from both sides:

4x + 15 - 15 = 26 - 15

4x = 11

Dividing both sides by 4:

(4x)/4 = 11/4

x = 11/4

Therefore, the linear equation has one solution. So, the correct response is:

B) one solution
