The mean deviation of 5 numbers is 4, when a number is removed, the mean deviation of the remaining numbers is 3 , what is that number ?

A man has 10 gallons of a 50% sulphuric acid mixture, and 20 gallons of a 20% solution, and 5 gallons of a 10% solution. He wants to use up all the 10% solution and make 15 gallons of 30% solution. How much of each solution should he use?

Let the number be denoted as 'n'
:. (4 x 5)-n/(5 - 1) = 3
(20 - n)/4 = 3
n = 20 - 12
n = 8

Let each of the solution be represented with: 'a', 'b' and 'c', Thus, giving an equation;
50a + 20b + 10c = 30(15)
---
c = 5
15 = a + b + c
15 = a + b + 5
10 = a + b
b = 10 - a
---
50a + 20b + 10c = 450
50a + 20b + 10(5) = 450
50a + 20b + 50 = 450
50a + 20b = 440
---
50a + 20b = 440
50a + 20(10 - a) = 440
50a + 200 - 20a = 440
30a = 240
---
a = 8 gal
b = 2 gal
c = 5 gal

Awesome God...all glory be to him who gives life and knowledge,..whose faithfulness only approaches infinity irrespective of our infinitesimal faithfulness..

Greetings to you all brothers and sisters.. Happy sunday and happy solving.

Hey Mr. AYSUCCESS99; I saw your ID in one of my funny Math dreams grin LOL !

Math life is great! I have been watching from the sidelines lately though... I'm doing good, I hope you are too? Yahweh has been good to me! I'll start contributing on the thread come Jan. 2014 by His grace...

1/cos@ +cos@/sin@=5
Sin@ cos^2@/cos@sin@=5
5cos@sin@=sin@ cos^2@
Divide all tru by cos@
5sin@=tan@ cos@
*cos@=5sin@-tan@...i tink am half correct sir.

...haha yes boss
the question is suppose 2b
cosec@ + cot@ =5
=>1/sin@ + cos@/sin@ =5
we have 5sin@=1+ cos@
from pythagorean identities , cos @ = sqrt[1-sin^2 @]
==>5sin@-1 =sqrt[1-sin^2 @]

taking square of both sides and puting sin@ as 'r' we have
25r^2 - 10r+1 =1-r^2
=r(26r-10)= 0
==>r=0 or 5/13
since sin@=r
==> @=0 (when r=0) or 22.61¤(when r=5/13)

hence cos@= 1 (when @=0) or 12/13=0.923 (when @=22.61)
