Answer:

\$17,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x----> that month's sales

y----> October earnings

we know that

8\%=8/100=0.08

y=0.08x+1,400 -----> equation A

y=2,800 -----> equation B

Equate equation A and equation B and solve for x

2,800=0.08x+1,400

0.08x=2,800-1,400

x=1,400/0.08

x=\$17,500
