The amount spent on calls per minute is an illustration of unit rates.
The amount spent on the 38-minute call is $113.62
The given parameters are:
[tex]\mathbf{Rate = \$2.99/minute}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{Time = 38\ minutes}\\[/tex]
So, the amount spent on call is:
[tex]\mathbf{Amount = Rate \times Time}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Amount = \$2.99/minute \times 38\ minutes}[/tex]
Cancel out minutes
[tex]\mathbf{Amount = \$2.99 \times 38}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{Amount = \$113.62}[/tex]
