Abstract
In this paper, the Inverse Exponential distribution was extended using the weibull generalized family of distributions. The probability density function (pdf) and cumulative density function (cdf) of the resulting model were defined and some of its statistical properties were studied. The method of maximum likelihood estimation was proposed in estimating the model parameters. The model was applied to a real life data set in order to assess its flexibility over its parent distribution.
