Sample solutions for task five

One solution is to first find all the adjacent states to Kansas then find their values. To find all the states that are adjacent to Kansas, we need to first locate Kansas. We can do so by moving around in the map view, or find Kansas in the table view then switch back to the map view. In the map view, we can use the four arrow keys to find all the states that are adjacent to Kansas and select these states. Then we can switch to the table view. To focus on only the selected states, we press the A key, to listen to selected regions only. After we find the column "percent employment for population 21 to 64 years with a disability", we can use the UP and DOWN arrow keys to check if any of the selected states has a violin pitch that is the same as the highest violin pitch.

Another solution is to first find Kansas in the table view, then ues the LEFT and RIGHT arrow keys to go to the column "percent employment for population 21 to 64 years with a disability" while staying in the row of Kansas. Switch to the map view which will show the variable "percent employment for population 21 to 64 years with a disability" and the current state will be Kansas. Now in the map view, use the four arrow keys to go through each of the adjacent states. The violin pitch tells whether the employment value is in the highest category or not.
