I have a query about research on the impact of population growth as an independent variable on economic development as a dependent variable over a 10-year period.

The variable of economic development does not have its own number, but we have 5 sub-indicators indicating it

Can I calculate the arithmetic average for each sub-index and then calculate the weighted average weighted for an asset to a single figure reflecting economic development over ten years?

Is my idea correct?
