In a soccer game, let the number of goals scored by the home team be denoted by the random variable X, and the number scored by the visiting team be denoted by the random variable Y.

The probability distributions of X and Y are given below:

x 0 1 2

P(X = x) 0.20 0.40 0.40

y 0 1 2

P(Y = y) 0.20 0.70 0.10

Assume that X and Y are independent random variables. Let T be the total number of goals scored in the game.
