Kyle’s total sales for the month of January were $10,000, and his total earnings for that month were $1,350. Kyle’s total sales for the month of February were $15,000, and his total earnings for that month were $1,575. What is Kyle’s fixed monthly salary in dollars?

  $900

Step-by-step explanation:

Kyle's commission on an extra $5000 in sales was ...

answer:   x = 3 + √11     and     x = 3 - √11

step-by-step explanation:

x² - 6x + 9 = 11

(x - 3)² = 11

x - 3 = ±√11

    x = 3 ± √11

x = 3 + √11     and     x = 3 - √11
