Answer 1

$68,213

Explanation:

The median is the middle value number.

So you need median for Virginia.

First lets see how index and income are connected.

To do this divide the income by the index to see if you have a constant value you can use.

535.434783 = Arkansas

535.381944 = Alabama

535.58 = Arizona

535.669236 = Alaska

535 is constant in all of these.

Let's multiply the index by 535.

127.2*535 =68212.5

For median income, you need a whole number so lets round up.

68213

So Virginia would have a median income rate of $68,213
