Hey there! :)
5x + 11 dollars include rent AND electricity, and 2x - 3 is just rent. To find the amount he spends of electricity, we do (5x+11)-(2x-3) = 3x + 14 dollars.

Answer:

3x+14

Step-by-step explanation:

You minus the 2x from the 5x which equals 3x then ADD the 11 and 3 to get 14 then add those numbers together and you get the equation 3x+14
