Question

Please help :)

Chloe is an acrobat in a local circus. Her job is to move across a tightrope from point A to point B while blindfolded! She can only move using the distances that you tell her to move in your instructions. Chloe may go past the ladder. However, if she does, make sure she turns around and goes back toward the ladder.

Your Task: Work with your partner to find different combinations of the lengths given in parts (a) through (d) below that will allow Chloe to move from point A and end at point B (the end of the tightrope). You may use each length as many times as you like. .

1. For each crossing, look for at least three different ways to get the acrobat across. *Draw a diagram on your paper that shows the solution with the least amount of steps. *For the neither 2 write a number sentence/equation.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll let you draw the diagram. Here are some possible equations. We have listed the shortest sequence first.

(a) 24 = (10 + 10 + 4) = (8 + 8 + 8) = (10 + 8 + 4 + 2)

(b) 17 = (10 + 3 + 2 + 2) = (10 + 3 + 3 + 3 - 2) = (3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 2)

(c) 15 = (11 + 4) = (6 + 6 + 3) = (4 + 4 + 4 + 3)

(d) 27 = (19 + 8) = (19 + 12 - 4) = (19 + 12 + 4 - 8)
