We have the equation


xy=z

And we know that z is less than zero whereas y is greater than zero. With that information we have to choose a posibble value for the x. Since the result of the product has to be negative and we know that one of the factors of said product is possitive, the value of x has to be negative.

So, from the options we see that x should be -3.
