Solution

Let me extract and analyze the content of the image for solving your mathematical problem. One moment Image import pytesseract

Load the image from the file path

This is likely related to expectation properties or a specific mathematical justification for the equality involving XX, f(X)f(X), and E[X]E[X].

To assist further, please clarify or verify the problem statement if possible (e.g., if specific conditions are given). Meanwhile, here are steps for approaching problems like this:

General Idea:

  1. The equation E[f(X)]=f(E[X])E[f(X)] = f(E[X]) is not true in general unless ff is a linear function. That is, f(x)=ax+bf(x) = ax + b, since expectation generally does not commute with non-linear functions.
  2. If you're working with special cases (e.g., f(x)=axf(x) = ax or other constraints), proving this equality depends on properties of f(x)f(x) and XX.
