Answer:

  • poverty line: $11.78 per hour
  • median income: $26.00 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

You have said the individual works (50 weeks/yr)×(40 h/week) = 2000 h/yr, so these annual wages need to be divided by 2000 to find the hourly wage.

  ($23,550/yr)/(2000 h/yr) = $11.775/h ≈ $11.78/h . . . poverty level

__

  ($51,994/yr)/(2000 h/yr) = $25.997/h ≈ $26.00/h . . . median income
