Summary:This paper proposes a new distribution called XLindley distribution (XLD), this distribution is generated as a special mixture of two distributions: exponential and Lindley and hence the name proposed. Also, the statistical properties like stochastic ordering, quantile function, the maximum likelihood method and method of moments. An application of the model to a real data set presented finally and compared with the fit and shows that XLD has more flexibility than others one-parameter distributions.
