Please help :)

Answer 1

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)
