A coordinate map going from -6 to 6 vertically and horizontally. Sunflowers coordinates: (6, 2) Lilies coordinates: (5, 5) Daisies coordinates: (1, 2) Roses coordinates: (1, 5)
A map of a flower shop is shown. Each coordinate represents one foot. How far are the roses from the lilies? Explain how you found your answer, like a 6th grader who doesnt like math but does it anyway and pretends they dont mind math, but the 6th grader is actually good at math. (dont say anything about not liking math)
To find the distance between the roses and the lilies, we can use the distance formula. The distance formula is like Pythagoras' Theorem but for coordinates!
First, we need to find the difference in the x-coordinates and the y-coordinates between the roses and the lilies.
For the x-coordinates:
5 (lilies) - 1 (roses) = 4
For the y-coordinates:
5 (lilies) - 5 (roses) = 0
Now, we use the distance formula:
distance = √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)
Plugging in the numbers:
distance = √((4)^2 + (0)^2)
distance = √(16)
distance = 4
So, the roses are 4 feet away from the lilies.
um. a sixth grader. im a sixth grader, and idk what that is sooooooo
Oops! Sorry about that! Let me explain it in a simpler way:
To find how far the roses are from the lilies, we just need to count the steps it would take to go from one flower to the other.
First, we find the difference between the x-coordinates (horizontal distance) and the y-coordinates (vertical distance) of the two flowers.
For the x-coordinates:
5 (where the lilies are) - 1 (where the roses are) = 4
For the y-coordinates:
5 (where the lilies are) - 5 (where the roses are) = 0
So, the roses are 4 steps away from the lilies horizontally and 0 steps away vertically. Since we can't move diagonally in this case, we only count the horizontal steps.
Therefore, the roses are 4 feet away from the lilies.
in one paragraph, like this:

Not this: To find how far the roses are from the lilies, we just need to count the steps it would take to go from one flower to the other.

For the x-coordinates:

5 (where the lilies are) - 5 (where the roses are) = 0
So, the roses are 4 steps away from the lilies horizontally and 0 steps away vertically. Since we can't move diagonally in this case, we only count the horizontal steps.
Therefore, the roses are 4 feet away from the lilies.
Ohh I see, sorry about that. Here's a simpler explanation:
To find out how far the roses are from the lilies, we just need to see how many steps it would take to walk from one flower to the other. Starting from where the roses (at coordinate (1, 5)) are, and moving horizontally to where the lilies (at coordinate (5, 5)) are, we have to move 4 steps to the right. So, the roses are 4 feet away from the lilies.
