Work out how many acrobats are needed to form prism-shaped human towers. Start by building a triangular prism with six acrobats: three acrobats in the base layer and three acrobats standing on their shoulders. Examine a table and graph of the total number of acrobats in the towers. Predict the number of acrobats needed ...
