It does influence Mr. Monty Hall, who has to open an empty door, but may not use your door.

If these quotes contain the whole problem, they are different from the Monty Hall problem because: 1. you do not begin by choosing a door (which cannot be reveailed in the next step) 2. the algorithm of the door-opening is not given (could it have relealed a car?) <- not relevant here due to 1...

No! There are so many analyses going on, testing theory predictions all the time. The LHC collaborations together published well over 100 papers with measurements, and as long as there were theory predictions, all agreed within the uncertainty. There was one observation 3.5 standard deviations...

Let P(n,p,k) be the probability that k customers want to buy the magazine. We know that it is a binominal distribution and P(n,p,k)=\frac{(n-k)!\,k!}{n!} p^k (1-p)^{n-k} Now, compare the situation "x magazines printed" and "x+1 magazines printed". - If there are not more than x potential...

With x=sinh(a), y=sinh(b), z=sinh(c), you can get rid of the roots: tanh(a)/4 = tanh(b)/5 = tanh(c)/6 sinh(a) sinh(b) sinh(c) = sinh(a) + sinh(b) + sinh(c) However, I do not know how to solve this. Me too.
