Question:

3. A mouse is trapped in a maze and desperately "wants out." After trying between 1 and 3 minutes, uniformly distributed, there is a 30% chance that it will find the right path. Otherwise, it will wander around aimlessly for between 2 and 3 minutes, uniformly distributed, and eventually end up where it started, only to try once again. The mouse can "try freedom" as many times as it pleases, but there is a limit to everything. With so much energy expended in trying and retrying, the mouse is certain to expire if it does not make it within a period that is normally distributed, with a mean of 10 minutes and a standard deviation of 2 minutes.

Write a simulation model to estimate the probability that the mouse will be free. For the purpose of estimating the probability, assume that 100 mice will be processed by the model.
