In a meeting,$60 \%$ of the members favour and $40 \%$ oppose a certain proposal. $A$ member is selected at random. We define a random variable $X$ such that $X=0$ if the member opposes the proposal and $X=1$ if the member is in favour. Then,$\text{Var}(X) = $

$A$ random variable $X$ has the following probability distribution:
$X = x_i$$1$$2$$3$$4$$5$$6$$7$$8$$9$
$P(X = x_i)$$10k$$9k$$8k$$8k$$6k$$5k$$4k$$3k$$k$

where $k$ is a real number. If $A = \{ x_i : x_i \text{ is a prime number} \}$ and $B = \{ x_i : x_i > 5 \}$ are two events, then $P(A \cup B) = $
