Contracts for two construction jobs are randomly assigned to one or more of three firms, A, B, and C. Let Y, denote the number of contracts assigned to firm A and Y, the number of contracts assigned to firm B. Recall that each firm can receive 0, 1, or 2 contracts. (a) Find the joint probability function for Y, and Y2: 2 (b) Find F(2, 0). F(2, 0) = |
