Problems

Find all solutions of the equation: \(x^2 + y^2 + z^2 + t^2 = x(y + z + t)\).

Find all solutions of the system of equations: \[\left\{ \begin{aligned} x+y+z = a\\ x^2 + y^2+z^2 = a^2\\ x^3+y^3+z^3 = a^3 \end{aligned} \right.\]

Now there are three doors with statements on them:

1. There is nothing behind the third door.

2. There is a trap behind the first door.

3. There is nothing behind this door.

Your guide says: There is treasure behind one of the doors, trap behind another one and there is nothing behind the third door. The sign on the door leading to treasure is true, the sign on the door leading to a trap is false, and the third sign might be true or false.
Which door will you open, if you really really want the treasure?

This is a famous problem, called Monty Hall problem after a popular TV show in America.
In the problem, you are on a game show, being asked to choose between three doors. Behind each door, there is either a car or a goat. You choose a door. The host, Monty Hall, picks one of the other doors, which he knows has a goat behind it, and opens it, showing you the goat. (You know, by the rules of the game, that Monty will always reveal a goat.) Monty then asks whether you would like to switch your choice of door to the other remaining door. Assuming you prefer having a car more than having a goat, do you choose to switch or not to switch?
