Answer 1

### PART A

Let \( x \) represent the cost of one pound of chocolate-covered cashews.

From the problem, we know that Suwani bought 8 pounds for a total of $52. Therefore, we can set up the equation as follows:

\[ 8x = 52 \]

### PART B

To find the cost of one pound of chocolate-covered cashews, we need to solve for \( x \) in the equation from PART A:

\[ x = \frac{52}{8} \]

Calculating that:

\[ x = 6.50 \]

Thus, the cost of one pound of chocolate-covered cashews is:

**$6.50**
