A prisoner is trapped in a cell containing three doors. The first door leads to a tunnel that returns him to his cell after two days of travel.

If it is assumed that the prisoner will always select doors 1, 2, and 3 with respective probabilities .5, .3, and .2, what is the expected number of days until the prisoner reaches freedom?
