Final answer:

Cairo, the largest city in Egypt, is not located on the shores of Lake Nasser in Upper Egypt.


Step-by-step explanation:

The statement that is incorrect is 'Egypt's largest city, Cairo, is located on the shores of Lake Nasser in Upper Egypt.' Cairo is actually located on the banks of the Nile River in northern Egypt, not on the shores of Lake Nasser. Lake Nasser is the reservoir created by the construction of the Aswan High Dam, which is the largest of all Nile River control projects. The Nile River indeed provides water to millions of people and most Egyptians live within a dozen miles from the Nile or one of its distributaries.
