-===The Exponential Failure Rate Function===
+#REDIRECT [[The_Exponential_Distribution#The_Exponential_Failure_Rate_Function]]
-The exponential failure rate function is:
-::<math>\lambda (t)=\frac{f(t)}{R(t)}=\frac{\lambda {{e}^{-\lambda (t-\gamma )}}}{{{e}^{-\lambda (t-\gamma )}}}=\lambda =\text{constant}</math>
-Once again, note that the constant failure rate is a characteristic of the exponential distribution, and special cases of other distributions only. Most other distributions have failure rates that are functions of time.
