Let x be the amount of peak time and y be the amount of off-peak time.

30x + 12y = 876.00

x + y = 40

Lets multiply the second equation by 12.

12x + 12y = 480

We can now subtract the two equations from each other to cancel out the y term.

30x + 12y = 876

12x + 12y = 480

18x + 0 = 396

Next, we can solve for x.

18x = 396

x = 22

Lastly, we can plug this value into one of the equations to solve for y.

22 + y = 40

y = 18

So, the number of peak hours was 22 and the number of off-peak hours was 18. The answer is C.

c) 3.75e + 8

d) 6390 cm^2

e) 650 cm^2

f) 20 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

For a) and b): 1 cm = 10 mm, multiply 20 (and 50) by 10

For c): the formula is to multiply 1e + 8

For d): 1 Liter = 1000 Cubic Centimeters  (hopefully that's what you're referring to)

For e): 10 mm = 1 cm, divide by 10

For f): divide the value by 3.6
