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, -9), (1, -9), (2, -4), (3, 1002)}. In the displayed order of S, the nonnegative probability weights are [1/(12), 5/(12), 6/(12), 0/(12)], summing exactly to one. Let Z=(-4)X+(-2). Find E[Z] exactly as a reduced fraction with positive denominator.

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.
