Problem: I’m a beginner skier and it’s my first time at a ski resort. I plan to ski on alpine skis (double boards) with the following itinerary: first, ski a total distance of 1km in the training area; then, ski each beginner slope with an angle of 8 degrees or more once; finally, ski each of the steepest intermediate slopes once. Please help me calculate the minimum total distance I will ski and the number of chairlift rides required.
Answer: distance: 4705m
chairlift rides required: 4
