A scale drawing of a lake has a scale of 1 cm to 80 m. If the actual width of the lake is 1,000 m, what is the width of the lake on the scale drawing? Explain or show your reasoning. *

The drawing of the lake has the scale of 1 centimeter to 80 meters.

Now, the actual width of the scale is of 1000 meters.

To find out the width of the lake on the drawing we need to convert the actual length as per the scale drawing.

Since we know that in the given scale drawing we have,

1 centimeter = 80 meters

Or we can say that

80 meters = 1 centimeter

1 meter =  meter

Now, 1000 meters should be equivalent to

centimeters.

Therefore, the width of the lake on the scale drawing is 12.5 centimeters.

the ruling was important in advancing civil rights because it affirmed that the 14th amendment applies to all rights and privileges of citizens, including access to   education.   this was being violated by states whose laws supported the segregation of schools.   section 1 of the 14th amendment reads as follows:
