So 750 and 48.75
so tax is a percent of the whole or 750
750=100%
48.75=x%
750/100=48.75/x
solve for x
multiply both sides by x
750x/100=48.75
multiply both sides by 100
750x=4875
divide both sides by 750
x=6.5
the asnwe ris 6.5%

Answers:
x = 24
y = 8√3
Explanation:

1) Since, the given triangle is a right triangle, and you have both an angle and the hypotenuse length, you can use some trigonometric ratios to find the variables.

2) The variables given represent:

x: adjacent-leg to angle 30°
y: opposite length to angle 30°

3) sine ratio:

sin 30° = opposite-leg / hypotenuse = y / (16√3)

⇒ y = 16√3 sin 30° = 16√3 × (1/2) = 8√3

4) cosine ratio

cos 30° = adjacent-leg / hypotenuse = x / (16√3)

⇒ x = 16√3 cos 30° = 16√3 (√3 / 2) = 16 × 3 / 2 = 24
