during the month, .....

she babysat 4 times at 20 dollars each time for a total of 80 dollars.

she worked 100 hours as a server for 6.50 per hour wages plus 9 dollars per hour tips.

her total revenue as a server was 100 * 6.50 + 100 * 9 = 650 + 900 = 1550.

her total cash inflow for the month was 80 + 1550 = 1630 dollars.
