Question

select the correct location on the image.
which layer of earth has the lowest temperature, is entirely solid, and floats on top of fluid - like matter?

Explanation:

To determine the correct layer, we analyze the properties: lowest temperature, entirely solid, and floats on fluid - like matter. The Earth's crust is the outermost layer, has the lowest temperature among the layers, is solid, and floats on the semi - fluid mantle (which acts as the fluid - like matter here). The mantle is semi - fluid, the outer core is liquid, and the inner core is solid but has extremely high temperature. So the correct layer is the crust.

Answer:

The location labeled "crust" (the top - most labeled part of the Earth's cross - section in the image).
