Question

A company has two manufacturing plants with daily production levels of 7x + 19 items and 2x - 7 items, respectively. The first plant production how many more items daily than the second plant? The first plant produces __? More items daily than the second plant.

Answer 1

The first plant produces 5x + 26 more items daily than the second plant

Explanation:

First plant = 7x + 19

Second plant = 2x - 7

The first plant production how many more items daily than the second plant?

Subtract items produced by the second plant from items produced by the first plant

= 7x + 19 - (2x - 7)

= 7x + 19 - 2x + 7

= 5x + 26

The first plant produces 5x + 26 more items daily than the second plant.
