Exponential Distribution Formulas

PDF: f(x) = λe^(-λx) for x ≥ 0
CDF: F(x) = 1 - e^(-λx) for x ≥ 0
Mean: μ = 1/λ
Variance: σ² = 1/λ²

Exponential distribution has the memoryless property: P(X > t+s | X > t) = P(X > s)!

Exponential distribution is continuous and defined only for x ≥ 0.

What is Exponential Distribution?

Exponential distribution models the time between events in a Poisson point process, and is famous for its memoryless property.

Continuous Distribution

For positive real numbers

Memoryless Property

No aging effect

Single Parameter

Rate parameter λ

Mean = Std Dev

μ = σ = 1/λ

💡 Example: λ=0.5, x=2 → f(x)=0.184, F(x)=0.632, μ=2, σ=2

Applications

Queuing Theory Reliability Survival Analysis Network Traffic Physics
