Question:
2.3.1 A six-sided die is rolled, and the number N on the uppermost face is recorded.
Then a fair coin is tossed N times, and the total number Z of heads to appear is observed. Determine the mean and variance of Z by viewing Z as a random sum of N Bernoulli random variables. Determine the probability mass function of Z, and use it to find the mean and variance of Z.
