Suppose that the genders of the three children of a certain family are soon to be revealed. Outcomes are thus triples of "girls" (g) and "boys" (b), which we write gbg, bbb, etc. For each outcome, let R be the random variable counting the number of girls in each outcome. For example, if the outcome is gbb, then =Rgbb1. Suppose that the random variable X is defined in terms of



R as follows: =X−2R−R22. The values of X are given in the table below.





























Outcome

ggb




gbb




bgb




bbb




bbg




bgg

Calculate the values of the probability distribution function of



X


, i.e. the function



pX


. First, fill in the first row with the values of



X


. Then fill in the appropriate probabilities in the second row.
