It is important to look at all details given in the question very carefully.
Amount of sales tax taken on the sofa = $43.13
Actual cost of the sofa = $575
Let us assume the percentage of sales tax taken = x%
Then
(x/100) * 575 = 43.13
5.75x = 43.13
x = 43.13/5.75
   = 7.50 percent
So the percentage of sales tax charged for the sofa was 7.50%.I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. Based on this procedure, similar problems can be done with absolute ease.

30 pts ! The height of the Ferris wheel in feet can be represented by the function 50 cos (π/15(x-10))+52 with time in x seconds
Dahasolnce [82]

h = 50 cos ( pie(x - 10 )/15 ) + 52

80 = 50 cos ( pie( x - 10 )/15 ) + 52

80 - 52 = 50 cos ( pie( x - 10 )/15 )

28 = 50 cos ( pie( x - 10 )/15 )

cos ( pie( x - 10 )/15 ) = 28/50

cos ( pie( x - 10 )/15 ) = 56/100

cos ( pie( x - 10 )/15 ) = cos ( 56 )

cos ( pie( x - 10 )/15 ) = cos ( 0.3111 pie )

Thus ;

pie( x - 10 )/15 = 0.3111 pie

( x - 10 )/15 = 0.3111

x - 10 = 15 × 0.3111

x - 10 = 4.6665

x = 10 + 4.6665

x = 14.6665 [ approximately ]

Thus the correct answer is exactly what u chose goodjob .....
