Yes because you multiply first so in this case you multiply 7 and 3 first. Since the second expression is in parenthesis you do that first just like you do 7 times 3. Then you just add 2 to that. The value of both expressions is 23
Rent and electricity = 5x + 11
rent = 2x - 3
electricity = (5x + 11) - (2x - 3)
electricity = 5x + 11 - 2x + 3
electricity = 3x + 14
