Suppose Tommy walks from his home at (0, 0) to the mall at (0, 5), and then walks to a movie theater at (6, 5). After leaving the theater Tommy walks to the store at (6, 0) before returning home. If each grid square represents one block, how many blocks does he walk?

Tommy will have walked 22 blocks.

If you plot the points, you will see that you have a rectangle. The length is 6 and the width is 5. Just find the perimeter of the rectangle and you will have the distance that Tommy walked.

6 + 5 + 6 + 5 = 22
To determine the number of blocks Tommy walked, you will calculate the distances between each of his points (ordered pairs).

(0,0) to (0,5) is 5 blocks
(0,5) to (6,5) is 6 blocks
(6,5) to (6,0) is 5 blocks
(6,0) to (0,0) is 6 blocks, back home

This totals 22 blocks that Tommy walked.
