Question

20. At a track meet, teams get points for placing in the top 6 of each event. 1" place = 10 pts, 2nd place 8 pts, 30 = 6 pts, 4 = 4 pts, 5* = 2 pts, and 6h - 1 pt. At the last trackmeet, El Dorado scored 188 pts off of 38 scoring events. The number of 1 place finishes was equal to the number of 4 place finishes. The number of 2nd place finishes was half as many as the number of 3d place finishes. The number of 5 places finishes was equal to the sum of the number of 1" and 2nd place finishes. The number of 2nd place finishes was equal to the number of 6 place finishes. How many of each place did El Dorado have?​
