M = 98 = 7×K
98/7 = 7×K/7 = K

The appropriate choice is
  d. 7x=98. Divide both sides by 7. Kendall had $14.

Answer:

d.  7x = 98. Divide both sides by 7. Kendall had $14.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, x represents Kendall’s money.

Given,

Mateo had 7 times as much money as Kendall had.

Thus, the money of Mateo = 7 times of x

= 7x

But, Mateo had $ 98.

[tex]\implies 7x = 98[/tex]

Which is the required equation,

Now, for finding the value of x we need to isolate x,

For this we will Divide both sides by 7,

[tex]\frac{7x}{7}=\frac{98}{7}[/tex]

[tex]x=14[/tex]

Hence, Kendall had $ 14.

⇒ Option d is correct.
