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.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
A.
which is a negative number, thus Option A is incorrect.
B.
which is a negative number, thus Option B is incorrect.
C.
which is a negative number, thus option C is incorrect.
D.
which is a positive number, thus option D is correct.
Answer:
16=d-12/14
We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand
16=d-12/14
Simplifying:
16=d-0.857142857143
We move all terms containing d to the left and all other terms to the right.
-1d=-0.857142857143-16
We simplify left and right side of the equation.
-1d=-16.8571428571
We divide both sides of the equation by -01 to get d.
d=16.8571428571

Answer:
(b) -36
Step-by-step explanation:
Synthetic division is often performed using a table of the kind shown in the attachment. The coefficients of f(x) are placed across the top, and the x-value to be evaluated is placed at the left. The rule for finding table entries is shown. (The first (left-most) number at the bottom is the leading coefficient of the polynomial.)
This table shows the remainder, which is f(-2), is -36.
__
The equation itself can be rewritten in "Horner form" to facilitate evaluation.
f(x) = (((-x +2)x -1)x +4)x +8
In this form, substituting for x and doing the evaluation is easier for mental arithmetic. You will notice that the contents of parentheses at each level match the bottom line of the synthetic division table.
f(-2) = (((-(-2) +2)(-2) -1)(-2) +4)(-2) +8
= (((4)(-2) -1)(-2) +4)(-2) +8
= ((-9)(-2) +4)(-2) +8
= (22)(-2) +8
= -36
f(-2) = -36 . . . . remainder from synthetic substitution
