frutty [35]3 years ago

The Map scale is used to figure out the length on how far apart the cities, states, and or countries from each other. If the scale is 1 : x, then divide the actual distance by x to calculate the map distance. If you were in Texas and wanted to figure out how many miles it was to Wyoming. See how many inches it is on a map, which is roughly like 3-4 inches.(Just a guess.)Then look on the bottom of the map and there is a scale. See what the scale says, it might say 3-4 inches is equal to about 1,000 miles.

That is what the scale does and how to use it. :) Hope this helped!

Setler [38]

The correct answer is A. Tierra Fria.

Tierra Fria is composed of highlands, but even though it is very high area, because of the low latitude and high altitude, this area has a very pleasant climate which is actually pretty similar to the oceanic coastal regions of the temperate climates. Because of this, it is very suitable for the livestock, since the weather conditions are very nice, the grass is green for most of the year and it is in abundance, plus the region is clean, and also lacks predators.
