Conditional mean on a wedge-shaped support

Let XX and YY be continuous random variables with the joint probability density function

f(x,y)={12e−x,∣y∣≤x,x>0, 0,otherwise.f(x,y)=\begin{cases}\frac12e^{-x}, & |y|\le x, x>0,\ 0, & \text{otherwise.}\end{cases}

Then E(X∣Y=−1)E(X|Y=-1) equals __________________
