I'm having yet another confusion with my probability homework and I would love some help.
3.2.5: $X$ follows Uniform$[3,7]$, $Y$ follows Exponent$(9)$. Find $\mathop{{}\mathbb{E}}(-5X -6Y).$
3.2.6: $X$ follows Uniform$[-12,-9]$, $Y$ follows N$(-8,9)$. Find $\mathop{{}\mathbb{E}}(11X+14Y+3).$
For the life of me, I don't understand how 3.2.5 $\neq 5E(X) + -6E(Y)$, and how 3.2.6 $\neq 11E(X)+14E(Y)+3$. I must be missing some theory here. Is there a theorem that could help me out?
