Suppose a continuous random variable with a uniform distribution over the range (0, 1) is observed to take the value 0-8438. Use this value to generate an observation from each of the following distributions: (i) the uniform distribution with range (1,3); (ii) the Poisson distribution with mean 2; (iii) the normal distribution with mean 10 and variance 25.
