1.2. If X is a continuous random variable having distribution F show that: (a) F(X) is uniformly distributed over (0, 1); (b) if U is a uniform (0, 1) random variable, then F?¹(U) has distribution F, where F?¹(x) is that value of y such that F(y) = x.

1.2. If X is a continuous random variable having distribution F show that: (a) F(X) is uniformly distributed over (0, 1); (b) if U is a uniform (0, 1) random variable, then F⁻¹(U) has distribution F, where F⁻¹(x) is that value of y such that F(y) = x.
