To find the unit rate of the price per pound of apples, you can divide the total cost by the total weight in pounds.

Total cost = $16.00
Total weight = 8 pounds

Unit rate (price per pound) = Total cost / Total weight
Unit rate = $16.00 / 8 pounds = $2.00 per pound

So, the unit rate is $2.00 per pound.
