A desk costs $44, but they boost the price 150%

They are selling it at $66 (selling price)
Since Michelle sold it at $66 and she earns 20% on the selling price as commission, then it is simply

That should be the commision amount michelle earns
Assuming your numbers are rounded to the nearest km, the minimum area will be ...
(5.5 km)·(10.5 km) = 57.75 km² . . . minimum
And the maximum area will be ...
(6.5 km)·(11.5 km) = 74.75 km² . . . maximum
_____
When a number is rounded to 6 km as the nearest km, its value may actually be anywhere in the range 6 km ± 0.5 km. If you really want to get technical about it, the ranges of possible dimensions are [5.5, 6.5) km and [10.5, 11.5) km, and the range of possible areas is [57.75, 74.75) km².
7(x-2) + 3(x + 2) = 5(x-6)...distribute thru the parenthesis
7x - 14 + 3x + 6 = 5x - 30...combine like terms
10x - 8 = 5x - 30...subtract 5x from both sides
10x - 5x - 8 = -30....add 8 to both sides
10x - 5x = -30 + 8...combine like terms
5x = - 22
x = -22/5 = - 4 2/5 <==
