Need someone to swallow me up

I’m really confused and need to learn this

Luisa sells stuffed animals. she sells her stuffed elephant for $34.90, and the sales tax is 6% of the sale price. about how much is the sales tax on the elephant?

Aplane is flying at 32,500 feet. it needs to rise to 36,000 feet in two stages.• in stage 1, it rises 5% of its initial altitude of 32,500 feet.• in stage 2, it rises at a rate of 125 feet per minute. how many minutes does it take for the plane to rise during stage 2?
