answer: segregation violated the equal protection clause of the 14th amendment, which holds that no state can “deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”

details/explanation:

brown v. board of education of topeka, decided by the us supreme court in 1954, ruled that all americans are entitled to the same civil liberties and protections in regard to access to education. until that decision, it was legal to segregate schools according to race, so that black students could not attend the same schools as white students. an older supreme court decision, plessy v. ferguson (1896), had said that separate, segregated public facilities were acceptable as long as the facilities offered were equal in quality. in the case of brown v. board of education, that standard was challenged and defeated. segregation was shown to create inequality, and the supreme court unanimously ruled segregation to be unconstitutional.

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:

all persons born or naturalized in the united states and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the united states and of the state wherein they reside. no state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the united states; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

answer:

total cost for tiles and paints is $924.

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given that a community hall is in the shape of a cuboid. the hall is 40m long 15m high and 3m wide.

the paint will be required for 4 walls and ceiling.

let us find area of walls and ceiling.

$\text{area of walls and ceiling}=(2*40*15)+(2*3*15)+(40*3)$

$\text{area of walls and ceiling}=1200+90+120$

$\text{area of walls and ceiling}=1410$

therefore, the area of walls and ceiling is 1410 square meters.

given: cost for 10 litre of paint is $10 and 10 litre paint covers 25 square meter. therefore,

$\text{ the total painting cost}=10*(\frac{1410}{25})$

$\text{ the total painting cost}=10*56.4=564$

therefore, the total painting cost is $564.

tiles will be required for floor. let us find the area of floor.

$\text{area of floor} = 40*3\text{ square meters}$

$\text{area of floor} =120\text{ square meters}$

given: 1m squared floor tiles costs $3. so,

$\text{total cost for tiles} = 3*120 = 360$

therefore, the total tiles cost is $360.

now let us find combined total cost of tiles and paint.

$\text{combined total cost}= 564+360 = 924$

therefore, the combined total cost of tiles and paint is $924.
