To minimize the expression 11ebfe6a_2cd4_95ed_96cc_fb4b0c6ad445_TBX8650_11, we need to find the minimum values for both 11ebfe6a_2cd4_bcfe_96cc_c96b42d9027e_TBX8650_11 and 11ebfe6a_2cd4_bd00_96cc_d3f5bb8f4930_TBX8650_11 and substitute them into the expression.

Since the two values are equal, we can take their average to get a value that minimizes both of them at the same time. 
Average of 11ebfe6a_2cd4_bcfe_96cc_c96b42d9027e_TBX8650_11 and 11ebfe6a_2cd4_bd00_96cc_d3f5bb8f4930_TBX8650_11 = (11ebfe6a_2cd4_bcff_96cc_114ad705cd9d_TBX8650_11 + 11ebfe6a_2cd4_bd00_96cc_d3f5bb8f4930_TBX8650_11) / 2 = 11ebfe6a_2cd4_bd00_96cc_5a18b1e5b865_TBX8650_11

Substituting this value into the expression 11ebfe6a_2cd4_95ed_96cc_fb4b0c6ad445_TBX8650_11 gives us: 
S = 11ebfe6a_2cd4_95ed_96cc_fb4b0c6ad445_TBX8650_11 + 11ebfe6a_2cd4_bd00_96cc_5a18b1e5b865_TBX8650_11

Evaluating this expression gives us S = 8, which is the minimum value. So the best choice is E.
