Answer:

1540 - 110x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be represented by a and b

Therefore, a = 14 - x

b = 7a + 19

from a = 14 - x, we can substitute a into b

Therefore b = 7a + 19 is the same as

b = 7(14 - x) + 19

b = 98 - 7x + 19

b = 117 - 7x

for the product of the two number

ab = (14 - x) (117 - 7x)

    = 1638 - 98x - 117x + 7x

    = 1540 - 110x
