Answer:  The equation that represents this situation is -3x = 21. The second number is -7 (option C).

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, the correct option is C.

We have to analyze the information given to write the equation and corroborate the option chosen.

So:

first number = -3  

Product means the result of multiplication, in this case, the product is number 21.

Mathematically speaking:

-3x= 21

x = 21/-3

x = -7

In conlclusion, he equation that represents this situation is -3x = 21. The second number is -7 (option C).

Feel free to ask for more if it´s necessary or if you did not understand something.

Does anybody understand writing equations in slope intercept form?
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

slope intercept form

y=mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

if we change from point slope form

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

we distribute

y-y1 = mx -x*x1

then add y1 to each side

y = mx -x*x1+y1


remember x and y are variables and should stay in the equation

m,x1,y1 are numbers from the problem

you may have to calculate the slope (m) from the formula

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)  from two points on the line

              or
47% x 60

Which is 27. 

So, Yolanda was assigned 60 problems.
