JEE Advanced 2023 Mathematics question on Probability

Paragraph
Consider the 6×66 \times 6 square in the figure. Let A1,A2,…,A49A_1, A_2, \ldots, A_{49} be the points of intersections (dots in the picture) in some order. We say that AiA_i and AjA_j are friends if they are adjacent along a row or along a column. Assume that each point AiA_i has an equal chance of being chosen.

Let pip_i be the probability that a randomly chosen point has ii many friends, i=0,1,2,3,4i = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4. Let XX be a random variable such that for i=0,1,2,3,4i = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, the probability P(X=i)=piP(X = i) = p_i. Then the value of 7E(X)7E(X) is
