1. He is not president of Australia

I am pretty sure Australia gov't structure follows the British model, and he is Prime Minister,
who is chosen NOT by the whole country electorate as in United States, but voted in by the elected representatives. Usually the majority party gets to designate the Prime Minister.

8. You are mostly correct!

But the "president" in a parliamentary system does not have chief executive's powers & duties. It is in many ways a figure head. Great Britain does not have a president. The Queen of England serves that function in many ways.

6. India has parliamentary system with a Prime Minister who

acts as the CEO, but they also have a president who is more of a figure head similar to Monarchy of England.
