utobi, How I understand it, a1 and b1 are values of the quantile function. E.g., if X ~ StdNorm, it means qnorm(c(.025,.975)) (in R). Daniel, what do you know about the distribution of Xs? Anything apart from the mean and these quantiles?

Nov 1, 2022 at 19:04 | comment | added | utobi | That’s just a probability statement about the random variable. | |
Nov 1, 2022 at 19:02 | comment | added | Daniel | Hi utobi, the probability statement would be $\mathbb{P}\left(X_1 \in\left[a_1, b_1\right]\right) \geq 95 \%$ | |
