19) Determine the elevation of location X. e. 20) Describe one piece of evidence on the map that indicates that the western side of the hill has the steepest slope.

X is located at 640ft in elevation.

The western side is steeper because the lines are closer together than the other sides of the hill.

Explanation:

Each contour line represents a 20ft increase in elevation. You can see the 600ft line labeled on the map, so the next one in is 620, and the one labeled "X" is 640.

Contour lines that are farther apart indicate a more gentle slope that is increasing its height over a longer distance. Just like a graph in math class, slope is "rise over run," so a flatter slope tells us that the height is increasing slowly. Close contour lines show us that the height is going up very quickly.

people cluster in places that have rich soil, fresh water, and mild climates.

explanation:

for e2020. the answer would be some directions from the mountain range so we can find mt. whitney. to locate which direction is north, you should use a   compass. this would not only find mt. whitney, but also becuase of this long paragraph you would get points because it's not like anyone actually reads your work becuase once they read the first sentence it sounds dumb enough to not read becuase i'm not good at answering this but the answer is compass for your benefit.
