Unit rates defined as the rates are expressed as a quantity of 1  such as 2 feet per second or 5 miles per hour they are called unit rates.

Given: Costs = $ 30 a month

In a month of may she used cellphone 12.5 hours.

First convert 12.5 hours in minute.

Use conversion: 1 hour = 60 minutes

then, 12.5 hours = $12.5 \times 60 = 750 minute$

by definition;

unit rate(cost per minute ) = $\frac{30}{750} = 0.04$ cost per minute.
