The correct answer is 150 school-supply kits.

To solve this problem using a unit rate, we divide the total number of school-supply kits (40) by the time it took to put them together (8 minutes).

40 kits / 8 minutes = 5 kits per minute

Then, we multiply the unit rate (5 kits per minute) by the desired time (30 minutes).

5 kits/minute * 30 minutes = 150 school-supply kits

So, volunteers could put together 150 school-supply kits in 30 minutes.
