$A$ person plays a game of tossing a coin thrice. For each head,he is given $Rs. 2$ by the organiser of the game and for each tail,he has to give $Rs. 1.50$ to the organiser. Let $X$ denote the amount gained or lost by the person. Show that $X$ is a random variable and exhibit it as a function on the sample space of the experiment.

The probability distribution of a random variable $X$ is given by the following table:
