2005 AMC 10A Problem 17

In the five-sided star shown, the letters $A$ , $B$ , $C$ , $D$ , and $E$ are replaced by the numbers $3$ , $5$ , $6$ , $7$ , and $9$ , although not necessarily in this order. The sums of the numbers at the ends of the line segments $\overline{AB}$ , $\overline{BC}$ , $\overline{CD}$ , $\overline{DE}$ , and $\overline{EA}$ form an arithmetic sequence, although not necessarily in this order. What is the middle term of the arithmetic sequence?
