I would also like an answer sheet for these problems please.
Hello Jasmin, As these are open-ended questions, more than one answer is acceptable from the students, in fact, exploring all possibilities using deep, thoughtful and creative responses is encouraged. Due to this, an answer sheet is not possible. If there is anything else I can assist you with, please don't hesitate to contact me.
