Concept:

Fixed Base Biasing a Transistor:
The circuit shown is called as a “fixed base bias circuit”, because the transistor's base current, IB remains constant for given values of Vcc, and therefore the transistor operating point must also remain fixed.
This two-resistor biasing network is used to establish the initial operating region of the transistor using a fixed current bias.
 
Calculation:
Given;
 β = 90  
VCC = 15 V 
R= 3 kΩ 
RB = 1 MΩ 
Then
and 
Therefore;
