Statistics Question on Univariate Distributions

Let X(1) < X(2) < X(3) < X(4) < X(5) be the order statistics based on a random sample of size 5 from a continuous distribution with the probability density function
f(x)={1x2,1<x< 0,otherwise.f(x)=\begin{cases} \frac{1}{x^2}, & 1 < x < \infin\\\ 0, & \text{otherwise.} \end{cases}
Then the sum of all possible values of r ∈ {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} for which E(X(r)) is finite equals __________

Answer

The correct answer is 10.
