Once per minute, a subway train arrives at the XYZ station with probability p. Every time the train arrived, it is either Green, Red or Blue. Consecutive minutes are independent: for example, knowing that a train arrived or did not arrive at 10:12AM tells you nothing about what will happen at 10:13AM. Trains arriving after 10:00AM always arrive in the following order: Green train always comes first, followed by the Red train, followed by the Blue train. Your train is the Blue Train.
You come to the XYZ station at exactly 10:00AM. What is the probability that you will wait exactly 10 minutes for your train?
