Answer 5

I had to look it up too - the formal definition isn't really clear but here it is:
A unit rate describes how many units of the first type of quantity corresponds to one unit of the second type of quantity.

so basically you want to make sure that your unit is singular. so you could describe driving down the road as "I was going fast - I was going 20 miles per 60 minutes" but while that is a rate it isn't a unit rate for it to qualify as a unit rate the second item needs to be singular: I was going 20 mile per hour...... rate = 20 miles unit = hour

any better?

Answer 38

Rate of change is how one variable changes with respect to another
The unit rate is the ratio of dimensions, units
example
I walk 1 mile in 20 minutes : this in rate of change
unit rate is miles/minute
can be converted to miles/hour, miles/second, feet/minute ect
