The expressions that are not equivalent to 2x + 2 - 5x + 7 - 3 are:

1) 2x + 11 - 5x
This expression simplifies to -3x + 11, which is not equivalent to 2x + 2 - 5x + 7 - 3.

2) -3x + 6
This expression does not contain any terms that cancel out with the terms in 2x + 2 - 5x + 7 - 3, so it is not equivalent.

3) 3x - 6
This expression also does not contain any terms that cancel out with the terms in 2x + 2 - 5x + 7 - 3, so it is not equivalent.

4) 2(x + 1)- 5x + 4
This expression simplifies to 2x + 2 - 5x + 4. The terms 2x and -5x cancel out, and the remaining terms sum up to 6, so this expression is equivalent to 2x + 2 - 5x + 7 - 3.

5) 2(x + 1)- 52
This expression simplifies to 2x + 2 - 52. The term -52 does not cancel out with any term in 2x + 2 - 5x + 7 - 3, so it is not equivalent.

6) 5
This expression is a constant value and does not contain any variables like x. Therefore, it is not equivalent to 2x + 2 - 5x + 7 - 3.

In summary, the expressions that are not equivalent to 2x + 2 - 5x + 7 - 3 are:
-3x + 11
-3x + 6
3x - 6
2(x + 1)- 52
