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.

HELP FASTTTT Which graph shows the solution to the system of linear inequalities ?
Mice21 [21]
Well, we do not see the lines clearly (if they are dotted (inequality) or solid (inequality or equal) ), but we'll come back to this.

y<x+1  can be simplified to be y<x if we ignore the constants, so the valid part is BELOW the line, since (y<)

x-4y <=4
again, ignore the constants and simplify to 
x-y<0 or
y>x   so the valid part is ABOVE the line (since y>)

There are two graphs that satisfy BOTH conditions, pink (slope=1) at the bottom, and blue (slope = 1/4) on top, i.e. first and third graph.

For the absolute inequality (y<x+1), the red line must be dotted.
For the <= condition, the blue line must be solid.

As we cannot see the lines clearly, you will make the choice between the first and third graphs according to the previous paragraph.
