The line graph shows the amount of money Flynn spent from July to December.

1. Of the amount Flynn spent in September, $112 was spent on clothes and the remaining amount was spent on food. How much did he spend on food in September?
2. In which month did Flynn spend $200 more than the previous month? Give your answer in this format. (Eg Jan)

(a)
Amount that Flynn spent in September = $374

Amount that Flynn spent on food
= 374 - 112
= $262

(b)
To find an increase in a line graph, look for an increasing slope. 

The 2 increasing slopes are from August to September and November to December. Now, find the month when Flynn spent $200 more than the previous month.

Amount that Flynn spent in August = $194
Amount that Flynn spent in September = $374

Amount that Flynn spent in September more than August
= 374 - 194
= $180 (x)

Amount that Flynn spent in November = $54
Amount that Flynn spent in December = $254

Amount that Flynn spent in December more than November
= 254 - 54
= $200 (✓)

The month that Flynn spent $200 more than the previous month = Dec

Answer(s): (a) $262; (b) Dec
