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.

So:

first number = -3  

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

x = -7

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