a) Mrs Legodi, a registered student at the University of Limpopo, tossed a fair coin three times. She decided to let X to be a random variable that takes the value 1 if the outcome of a toss is a head and the value 0 otherwise. She also defined Y to be a random variable of the total number of heads in the three tosses. i) What will be her joint probability mass function (PMF) of X and Y?
