Step 1

here AS PER GUIDELINES I HAVE CALCULATED 3 SUBPARTS 

here we will use definition of random , Continuous and discrete  variable 

Random Variable is variable that Describe the outcomes of Experiment.

Continuous Random Variable that Contains Some Infinite values in Particular Interval .

Discrete Variable is Variable that Contains Only discrete Values.
