Answer:

C. 5/7 = w/28

Explanation:

We're told from the question, the team won 5 and lost 2 of their first 7 games and later continued to win at this rate and won w games in the 28-game season.

Since w represents the number of games won in a 28-game season, in order to create a proportion to determine the value of w, we have to consider the number of games won (which was 5) in 1st 7 games.

So the proportion can then be written as;
