5) When extreme athletes compete at a motorcycle jumping competition, judges give them scores<br />
on a scale of 0-10 in three categories: use of fundamentals, degree of difficulty, and overall<br />
style. However, these categories are not weighted equally in determining the final score.<br />

6) At the lake, Curtis caught three fish. He wanted to weigh<br />
the fish individually, but his scale was broken--It could only<br />
read weights between 5 and 10 pounds. So he weighed<br />
the large and medium fish together, and got 7.8 pounds.<br />
The large and small fish weighed 7.0 pounds, and the<br />
small and medium fish were 5.6 pounds.<br />
How much did each fish weigh individually? What was the total weight of all three fish?<br />
