A contestant is facing 10 closed doors. Behind one of these doors there is a prize. The
contestant can open one door at a time to find the prize, up to 4 times (so the candidate stops when the prize is found but can not open more than 4 doors). What is the probability of winning the prize?
Total 10 doors are available.
P(win price) = P(1) + P(2) + P(3) + P(4)
= 0.4
So, 0.4 is the probability of winning the prize.
Please comment if any doubt. Thank you.

A contestant is facing 8 closed doors. Behind one of these doors there is a prize. The contestant can open a door at a time to find the prize, up to 3 times (so the candidate stops when the prize is found but can not open more than 4 doors) . What is the probability of winning the prize?
In the Tiger problem, an agent is facing two closed doors. Behind one of the doors is a treasure, and behind the other is a tiger. Initially, the tiger has a 50-50 chance of being behind either door. The tiger will switch the door with a 30% chance. The agent makes one of two possible "observations": either it hears the tiger on the right or it hears the tiger on the left. The agent will hear the tiger behind the...
please help in java Monty Hall was a television game show host years ago. The contestant would have 3 doors to choose from. There was always a prize behind one door and goats behind the other two doors. The contestant would choose a door. Monty Hall would then open a door following these rules: Not a door the contestant chose and not the winning door. Monty ALWAYS showed a goat. He'd then ask the contestant if they wanted to change...
Now we modify it so that you are given the choice of four doors. Behind one door is a car, behind the others, goats. You pick a door, say #1, and the host, who knows what is behind the doors, opens two other doors, say #3 and #4, each of which has a goat. Here we assume that the host cannot open the door to expose the car and when he can open two out of three doors, he chooses...
A debate recently erupted about the optimal strategy for playing a game on the TV show called "Let's Make a Deal." In one of the games on this show, the contestant would be given the choice of prizes behind three closed doors. A valuable prize was behind one door and worthless prizes were behind the other two doors. After the contestant selected a door, the host would open one of the two remaining doors to reveal one of the worthless...
1. Game simulation, Java programming. In the game show Let’s Make a Deal, a contestant is presented with three doors. Behind one of them is a valuable prize. After the contestant chooses a door, the host opens one of the other two doors (never revealing the prize, of course). The contestant is then given the opportunity to switch to the other unopened door. Should the contestant do so? Intuitively, it might seem that the contestant’s initial choice door and the...
You have to solve the 7th question
Exercises p one of the two doors not selected by the contestant. In opening up a oor, a rule of the show is that Monty is prohibited from opening the door ith the good prize. After Monty opens a door, the contestant is then given he opportunity to continue with the door originally selected or switch to he other unopened door. After the contestant's decision, the remaining two doors are opened. a. Write...
5. Consider the Monty Hall Problem. A game show host shows you three doors, and indicates that one of them has a car behind it, while the other two have goats. You win a car if you end up choosing a door with a car behind it. The game is conducted as follows: • You pick an initial door out of the three available. • The game show hosts then opens a door (out of the remaining two doors) with...
Consider the Monty Hall problem. Let’s label the door with the car behind it a and the other two doors b and c. In the game the contestant chooses a door and then Monty chooses a door, so we can label each outcome as ‘contestant followed by Monty’, for example ab means the contestant chose a and Monty chose b. (a) Make a 3 × 3 probability table showing probabilities for all possible outcomes. (3 marks) (b) Make a probability...
