what effect omitting the anchors would have on the desired length and strength of the sheet piles?

Regards Mike
 
a) much heavier sheet piles required
or
b) sheet piles fail
 
to develop the cantilever greater penetration depth would be required, which would result in an increase to the section modulus of the sheeting.

Hope you get a good grade. . .
