Answer:
5 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Let point O be the point of intersection of the kite diagonals.
|OF| = 2, |OH| = 5
|FH| = |OF| + |OH| = 2 + 5 = 7
FH and EG are the diagonals of the kite. Hence the area of thee kite is:
Area of kite EFGH = (FH * EG) / 2
Substituting:
35 = (7 * |EG|) / 2
|EG| * 7 = 70
|EG| = 10 units
The longer diagonal of a kite bisects the shorter one, therefore |GO| = |EO| = 10 / 2 = 5 units
x = |GO| = |EO| = 5 units
Commission = 20% x 85 = $17
Salary = $82 + $17 = $99 <=== this much she made.
The numbers they are looking for are numbers that are simple but made up. For example, start with 0. Plug 0 in for x, so the corresponding value of y is 10. For a second value, you could do 2. When x=2, y=11, etc. So essentially, put in some simple numbers for x, and solve for y. :)
