![Suppose that an experimenter tossed three balanced coins. He defined X₁, to denote the
number of heads and X₂, is to denote the amount of money won on a daily lotto bet in South
Africa in the following manner. If the first head occurs on the first toss, R1 (one rand) is won. If
the first head occurs on toss 2 or on toss 3, R2 or R3 is won respectively. If no heads appear,
the R1 (that is, win -R1) is lost.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F8cfbb251-8876-4e62-b13e-c1ec08eee315%2Fd309484a-2055-419e-ae33-a785666fcbe0%2Flklsq18_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
