Answer:

The correct option is C, $14.29  

Explanation:

A 7-2 stock split means that 7 shares now have the value of 2 shares held previously.

This simply means that a stockholder who had 2 shares before the stock split now has 7 shares.

The price of the share after the stock split the value of 2 shares before stock split divided by 7 shares i.e   ($50*2)/7=$ 14.29  

The correct option from the multiple choices is $ 14.29
