<u>ANSWER:</u>

The cities of San Francisco and Los Angeles will get close together over time.

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

  • San Francisco is located on the North America Plate which is moving south-east. Los Angeles is on the 'Pacific Plate' which is moving north-west.
  • Los Angeles lies '340 miles south' of San Francisco at present. The movement of these two tectonic plates will lead Los Angeles to move to the north of 'San Francisco'.
  • This will take a lot of time; almost 16 million years because the 'tectonic plates' move at a 'very slow pace'.

Explain how scale is used on a map and why it is an important tool
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Scale on a map is important in order to give the map reader a sense of size. Maps are just about always smaller than what they really represent, and scale is a way of quantifying how much smaller they are.

First, find yourself a map. Then, using two points, find both the distance on the map and the true distance. Next, you divide the true distance by the measured map distance, and find your scale. Last, you need to place that ratio onto your map.
