All seem to give the same ans.
=SUMPRODUCT((a2:a22="x")*(TRIM(d2:d22)=""))
=SUMPRODUCT(--(a2:a22="x")*--(TRIM(d2:d22)=""))
=SUMPRODUCT(--(a2:a22="x"),--(TRIM(d2:d22)=""))

The extra double unary minuses won't do any harm.

=SUMPRODUCT(--(a2:a22="x")*--(TRIM(d2:d22)=""))
is the same as saying
=SUMPRODUCT(-1*-1*(a2:a22="x")*-1*-1*(TRIM(d2:d22)=""))
