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, -4), (1, -4), (2, 4), (3, 1005)}. In the displayed order of S, the nonnegative probability weights are [1/(14), 8/(14), 5/(14), 0/(14)], summing exactly to one. Compute E[X] exactly as a reduced positive-denominator fraction; do not replace it with the ordinary average of distinct values.

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.
