What use coordinates?
There are two main uses of coordinates. The common use is to the location of a point in space which may be two dimensional or multi-dimensional. Maps are a good example of this use. Every place on earth has a unique latitude and longitude and that enables us to unambiguously locate places. Coordinate geometry also allows mathematicians to use results from algebra to solve problems in geometry.
Why are formulas important in algebra?
