This is easy. He first earned $11 on Saturday and then on Sunday he earned some money. We don't know how much he earned, we just know he earned some money. Let's put the expression together. A good place to start would be the $11. Let's add eleven to the expression. And because he earned some more money, it's going to be addition. So currently, the expression stands at $11 +

And because we don't know how much money he made on Sunday, x will be the variable for how much he earned. So the expression will be

11 + x
