A game is played with 3 coins, A, B and C. Coins A and B are biased so that the probability of obtaining a head is 0.4 for coin A and 0.75 for coin B. Coin C is not biased. The 3 coins are thrown once.

  1. Draw up the probability distribution table for the number of heads obtained.
  2. Hence calculate the mean and variance of the number of heads obtained.
