017 on the weights of giant rabbits (another rukia problem)

[intoinfinity]

Five giant rabbits took turns weighing themselves on a scale. However, they weighed each other two at a time, ten times total, so that every possible combination of two rabbits was weighed. The scale had the following readouts for the pairs: 236 pounds, 244 pounds, 228 pounds, 250 pounds, 258 pounds, 230 pounds, 246 pounds, 238 pounds, 242 pounds,

Ah. You are correct, Bee (and the concept of a rabbit heavier than me never ceases to delight), but I believe I have detected a flaw in my rabbit math bonding plan.

[intoinfinity]

And what would this flaw be, pray tell.

By replying to me only with equations, I have thus enabled you to entirely avoid talking about yourself.

[intoinfinity]

I fail to see what you mean by that.

Ah, I like solving this sort of problem.

I was simply too lazy to start when Rukia posted it...

[intoinfinity]

Perhaps you can tackle the next one then.

Impressive... if a bit disturbing.

Now this is more along my line of though than the last one you posted. I'll admit to preferring my formula to be pre-arranged for me instead of working algebra from scratch. Physics vs Math I suppose.
