Consider a statistical experiment where you flip two coins and you are interested in how many heads flipped. (1) Write a description of the random variable describing this experiment, i.e. X = ”some description” (2) Write a probability distribution describing the probability of the outcomes of this event. (3) What is the expected number of heads flipped?

“Since you have posted a question with multiple sub-parts, we will solve first three sub-parts for you. To get remaining sub-part solved please repost the complete question and mention the sub-parts to be solved.”.
(1) Random variable : A random variable is defined as a function which assigns numerical value to every possible outcomes of a random experiment.
For example : Number of times getting a six when in a random experiment of rolling a die, Number of times drawing a red ball from the basket containing red ball and white ball, Number of goals in a soccer match etc.
The domain of a random variable is a complete sample space and the range of a random variable is a set of real numbers.
