- Suppose that a coin is tossed twice so that the sample space is S= {HH, HT, TH, TT}. Let X represent the number of heads that can come up. With each sample point we can associate a number for X as shown in Table. Thus, for example, in the case of HH (i.e., 2 heads), X =2 while for TH (1 head), X = 1. It follows that X is a random variable.arrow_forwardIn the past century, the average annual rainfall in Austin is 35.2 inches with standard deviation 8.4 inches.
