8 0

Answer:

Unit Rate: 2$ per chocolate

If you're buying 5, it will cost $10

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding the unit rate:

16 ÷ 8 = 2

2 x 5 = $10

If you're talking about what happens if each chocolate cost $5 per item it would be

$5 x 8 chocolates = $40

I hope this helped! :)

<h3>What is the margin of error?</h3>

Your results will deviate from the actual population value by how many percentage points, as indicated by the margin of error.

We have the following info:

ME = 50 margins of error desired

$\sigma$ = 1000 the standard deviation for this case

The margin of error is given by this formula:

(a) $ME=Z_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

And on this case, we have that ME =50 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

(b) $n =(\dfrac{Z_{a\2}\sigma}{ME})^2$

The critical value for the 99% of confidence interval now can be founded using the normal distribution. The significance is $\alpha$ = 0.01. And for this case would be $Z_{\alpha / 2}$ = 2.58, replacing into formula (b) we got:
