Suppose a function f : R → R is continuous with f(0) = 1. Show that if there is a positive number x0 for which f(x0) = 0, then there is a smallest positive number p for which f(p) = 0. (Hint: Consider the set {x | x > 0, f(x) = 0}.)

Let T > 0 be a continuous random variable with cumulative hazard function H(·). Show that H(T)∼Exp(1),where Exp(λ) in general denotes the exponential distribution with rate parameter λ. Hints: (a) You can use the following fact without proof: For any continuous random variable T with cumulative distribution function F(·), F(T) ∼ Unif(0,1). Hence S(T) ∼ Unif(0,1). (b) Use the relationship between S(t) and H(t) to derive that Pr(H(T) > x)= e−x.

(A universal random number generator.)Let X have a continuous, strictly increasing cdf F. Let Y = F(X). Find the density of Y. This is called the probability integral transform. Now let U ∼ Uniform(0,1) and let X = F−1(U). Show that X ∼ F. Now write a program that takes Uniform (0,1) random variables and generates random variables from an Exponential (β) distribution
