Coin A is weighted so that the probability of throwing a head is \(\frac{2}{3}\). Coin B is weighted so that the probability of throwing a head is \(\frac{1}{4}\). Coin A is thrown twice and coin B is thrown once.
- Show that the probability of obtaining exactly 1 head and 2 tails is \(\frac{13}{36}\).
- Draw up the probability distribution table for the number of heads obtained.
- Find the expectation of the number of heads obtained.
