Question 28535: Finite Point Probability of a Repeated Value

Original question and givens

The nonempty finite sample space is S={0, 1, 2, 3}, with event family F=𝒫(S). The total function X:S→R has table {(0, -10), (1, -10), (2, 11), (3, 1008)}. In the displayed order of S, the nonnegative probability weights are [1/(15), 11/(15), 3/(15), 0/(15)], summing exactly to one. Find P(X=11) exactly as a reduced fraction p/q with positive denominator.

Step-by-step derivation

source roles = [qf-random-variable-point-mass, rv_point_mass]

derived = [probability_of_complete_value_fibre]

source roles = [[0, 1, 2, 3], powerset(S), [-10, -10, 11, 1008]]

derived = [[[0, -10], [1, -10], [2, 11], [3, 1008]]]

RV ORIGINAL all aligned numerator weights := sum(1, 11, 3, 0)

RV ORIGINAL all aligned numerator weights = 15

source roles = [[[0, -10, 1], [1, -10, 11], [2, 11, 3], [3, 1008, 0]], 15, 11]

derived = [15, [[0, -10, 1, No], [1, -10, 11, No], [2, 11, 3, Yes], [3, 1008, 0, No]]]

RV ORIGINAL matching slot2 outcome2 mass := sum(0, 3)

RV ORIGINAL matching slot2 outcome2 mass = 3

RV ORIGINAL complete fibre mass over denominator := div(3, 15)

RV ORIGINAL complete fibre mass over denominator = 1/5

source roles = [[[0, -10, 1], [1, -10, 11], [2, 11, 3], [3, 1008, 0]], 11, 3, 15]

derived = [1/5]
