Please select the best answer from the choices provided
A
B
C
D

Choice D) The majority of new farm land in Texas is east of the 98th parallel

Explanation:

Let's go through the answer choices to see which is false.

A) True because they are along the green dashed line which indicates a railroad.B) True. The panhandle is at the north and it represents the portion of land sticking up compared to the rest of Texas. As the name "panhandle" implies, Amarillo is in the handle portion while the lower part of Texas can be considered the pan itself.C) This is true since each city is marked with an X, and the map legend says that these markers are hubs.D) This must be false considering we found that A,B,C are true. Also, we can see by the map that the majority of green region (new farming area) is to the west, not east, of the 98th parallel red dashed line. So this helps us see why choice D is false even if we didn't eliminate the other answer choices.

Side note: Now that I think it over, the terminology "98th parallel" should be "98th meridian". Parallel lines correspond to latitude lines, not longitude lines. However, choice D is still the answer despite this typo.

The answer is b. Amarillo is located in the Texas panhandle

Yeah u should that's the right thing
