Your in luck! I was just learning these percent things today 'xD but Not in luck at the same time. I will answer the 2 questions that's the most I can do.
1. $17.50 with a 7% sales tax
Answer: 17.50 times .07 equals 1.23
17.50 plus 1.23 equals 18.73
The answer is $18.73
2. 21.95 with a 4.25% sales tax
Answer: 21.95+4.25=26.20
Hope this helps!! :D this took me a while to figure out and used a bit of my time. So I hope the time was worth it! :)

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Eigenvalues of a Matrix</u>
Given a matrix A, the eigenvalues of A, called
are scalars who comply with the relation:

Where I is the identity matrix
![I=\left[\begin{array}{cc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=I%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D1%260%5C%5C0%261%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
The matrix is given as
![A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}3&5\\8&0\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D3%265%5C%5C8%260%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Set up the equation to solve
![det\left(\left[\begin{array}{cc}3&5\\8&0\end{array}\right]-\left[\begin{array}{cc}\lambda&0\\0&\lambda \end{array}\right]\right)=0](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=det%5Cleft%28%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D3%265%5C%5C8%260%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D-%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D%5Clambda%260%5C%5C0%26%5Clambda%20%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%5Cright%29%3D0)
Expanding the determinant
![det\left(\left[\begin{array}{cc}3-\lambda&5\\8&-\lambda\end{array}\right]\right)=0](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=det%5Cleft%28%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D3-%5Clambda%265%5C%5C8%26-%5Clambda%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%5Cright%29%3D0)

Answer:
1st pic) 17.8
2nd pic) 16.8
3rd pic) 9.1
4th pic) 13.5
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>1st pic:</u>
(write equation) Cos 27 (cos 27 = 0.89) = 
(new equation) 0. 89 = 
(multiply 20 on both sides) 0.89 x 20 =
x 20
(solve) 17.8 = x
<u>2nd pic:</u> 
(write equation) tan 40 (tan 40 = 0.84) = 
(new equation) 0.84 = 
(multiply 32 on both sides) 0.84 x 20 =
x 20
(solve) 16.8 = x
<u>3rd pic:</u> 
(write equation) cos 55 (cos 55 = 0.57) = 
(new equation) 0.57 = 
(multiply 16 on both sides) 0.57 x 16 =
x 16
(solve) 9.1 = x
<u>4th pic:</u> 
(write eqaution) tan 42 (tan 42 = 0.90) = 
(new equation) 0.90 = 
(multiply 15 on both sides) 0.90 x 15 =
x 15
(solve) 13.5 = x
Answer: As the number of rides given by the taxi driver increased, the earnings of the taxi driver also increases.
5pi/6 r^2 = 15pi
R^2 = 18
R= 3sqrt(3)
