Abstract
This paper presents the characterisation of X-Lindley distribution using the relation between truncated moment and failure rate/reverse failure rate function. An application of this distribution to real data of survival times (in days) of 92 Algerian individuals infected with coronavirus is given.
Keywords: Lindley distribution, X-Lindley distribution truncated moments, failure rate function, reverse failure rate function, characterisation of distributions
