Exponential mathematical expectation
Solution: Write the expectation and variance of X first, and then use the nature of mathematical expectation to transform E{X+e -2X} into the sum of two expectations and calculate them separately.

/& gt; ∵X obeys the exponential distribution with the parameter 1,

Probability density function f(x)= 1

e-x,x>0

0,x≤0,

And EX= 1, DX= 1,

∴Ee-2x=

So: E(X+e-2X)=EX+Ee-2X= 1+
