Answer:

The first plant produces 2x + 21 more items daily than the second​ plant.

Explanation:

The daily production of the two plants are:

Plant 1: 5x + 14

Plant 2: 3x - 7

Compute the number of items first plant produces more than the second​ plant as follows:


\text{Plant 1 - Plant 2}=5x+14-3x+7\\\\=2x+21

Thus, the first plant produces 2x + 21 more items daily than the second​ plant.
