Let there be U, a random variable that is uniformly distributed over [0,1] . Find:
1) Density function of the random variable Y=min{U,1-U}. How is Y distributed?
2) Density function of 2Y
3)E(Y) and Var(Y)
Drawing the graph and finding the cdf of the rv makes it easier to solve the problem.
The second problem is solved by the process of transformation of variable hence by calculating jacobian.
Third problem is simple expectation and variance calculation.

Let X be a uniformly distributed random variable on [0,1]. Then, X divides [0,1] into the subintervals [0,X] and [x,1]. By symmetry, each subinterval has a mean length 0.5. Now pick one of the subintervals at random in the following way: Let Y be independent of X and uniformly distributed on [0,1], and pick the subinterval [0,X], or (X,1] that Y falls in. Let L be the length of the subinterval so chosen. What is the mean length of L...
