Math Help - expected value of matrices

1. expected value of matrices

Dear all,

Assume X= $\left(\begin{array}{ccc}X_{11} & X_{12} & X_{13} \\ X_{21} & X_{22} & X_{23} \\ X_{31} & X_{32} & X_{33}\end{array}\right)$

How to find E(X)? where E is expected value.

Expected value of a constant is the constant.
So, do you mean E(X) =11 ?

thank you~

is there any meaning of the expected value of a constant?

suppose all the entries in matrix X are const.
if E(X)=X, then X-E(X)=0?
