Answer:

Cassandra is likely to qualify for Chapter 7 bankruptcy.

Explanation:

Given scenario is : Cassandra lives in Oklahoma and makes $60,000 a year. The median annual income in Oklahoma is $64,105.

A person qualifies for chapter 7 bankruptcy, if his annual median income is below the median income of his state. So, here the annual median income of Cassandra is below the median income of her state, Oklahoma.

So, she will qualify for chapter 7 bankruptcy.
