Let's denote A - Academic, T - TVL.

Sample space S is all possible outcomes of asking.


S={AAA,TAA,ATA,AAT,S = \{AAA, TAA, ATA, AAT,

TTA,TAT,ATT,TTT}TTA, TAT, ATT, TTT\}

Let YY be a random variable giving the number of heads plus the number of tails in three tosses of a coin. The possible values of TT are 0,1,2,3.0,1,2,3.
