Suppose that U is a random variable with a uniform distribution on (0,1). Now suppose that f is the PDF of some continuous random variable of interest, that F is the corresponding CDF, and assume that F is invertible (so that the function F-1 exists and gives a unique value). Show that the random variable X = F-1(U) has PDF f(x)—that is, that X has the desired PDF. Hint: use results on transformations of random variables. This cute result allows...
