We are interested to find the distribution of Y and its statistics such as mean and s.d. from
the distribution of X. As we will see, the event Y y implies X Ry , where Ry is
some range depending on y, so that, the cdf of Y,

If there are several solutions to the problem, i.e., several x vectors {x (1) , x (2) ,...} give
rise to the same y vector:
