There are 3 red balls and 5 blue balls in a bag. 2 balls are drawn from the bag with replacement.

Let [latex]X[/latex] be the random variable of number of red balls drawn. Construct the probability distribution table for [latex]X[/latex] and show that [latex]X[/latex] is a discrete random variable. Find [latex]\text{E}\left( X \right)[/latex] and [latex]\text{Var}\left( X \right)[/latex].
