Let the price of flowers in September be x, then (100 + 20)/100 * x = $1.50
120/100 * x = $1.50
1.2x = $1.50
x = $1.50/1.2 = $1.25
The price of flowers in September is $1.25

Total money realised in September = $1.25 x 900 = $1,125
40% earned = 0.4 x $1,125 = $450

Total money realised in October = $1.50 x 700 = $1,050
40% earned = 0.4 x $1,050 = $420

The class earned more money in September and they earned $30 more than in October.

Len [333]
The cost of the ride varies by however many miles is driven, however the charging rate stays the same no matter how long the ride is. In the expression 0.20m + 2.00 , 2.00 is the constant as it stays the same, and 0.20 is the coefficient as is varies with however many miles are driven.
