How to Use Coordinates to Plan a Garden Layout

In this video, we help Sarah plan her garden by using coordinates to find the distance between two plants: a rose bush at (1, 4) and a tulip at (1, -3). Since both points share the same x-coordinate, we calculate the distance using the y-coordinates. By finding the absolute value of the difference between the y-values, we determine that the distance between the rose bush and the tulip is 7 units. This lesson aligns with Common Core Standard 6.NS.C.8, which focuses on solving real-world problems by graphing points and finding distances on a coordinate plane. Perfect for students learning how to apply math to garden planning and real-world projects!
