    D. S > $400,000

    Step-by-step explanation:

    His salary is base salary plus commission

    salary = 24000 +.08 sales

    He wants a salary of at least 56000

    56000< = 24000 +.08 sales

    Subtract 24000

    56000-24000< = 24000-24000+.08*sales

    32000<=.08 * sales

    Divide each side by. 08

    32000/.08 <=.08/.08 * sales

    400000< = sales
