$A$ player tosses two coins. He wins $Rs. 10$ if $2$ heads appear,$Rs. 5$ if one head appears,and $Rs. 2$ if no head appears. Find the variance of the winning amount.

Let $X$ be a random variable,and let $P(X=x)$ denote the probability that $X$ takes the value $x$. Suppose that the points $(x, P(X=x))$ for $x=0,1,2,3,4$ lie on a fixed straight line in the $xy$-plane,and $P(X=x)=0$ for all $x \in \mathbb{R} \setminus \{0,1,2,3,4\}$. If the mean of $X$ is $\frac{5}{2}$,and the variance of $X$ is $\alpha$,then the value of $24\alpha$ is:

If $f(x) = \frac{x}{8}$ for $0 < x < 4$ and $f(x) = 0$ otherwise,is the probability density function (p.d.f.) of a continuous random variable $X$,and $F(x)$ is the cumulative distribution function (c.d.f.) associated with $f(x)$,then find $F(0.5)$.
