Answer:

The first plant produces 3x+20 more items daily than the second plant.

Explanation:

Given that:

Production level of first plant = 6x+13

Production level of second plant = 3x - 7

We will find the difference of both plants manufacture levels.

Difference = First plant - Second Plant

Difference = (6x+13)-(3x-7)

Difference = 6x+13-3x+7

Difference = 3x+20

Hence,

The first plant produces 3x+20 more items daily than the second plant.
