Recall that X ∼ Exp(λ) if the probability density function of X is fX(x) = λe−λx for x ≥ 0. Let X1, . . . , Xn ∼ Exp(λ), where λ is an unknown parameter. Exponential random variables are often used to model the time between rare events, in which case λ is interpreted as the average number of events occurring per unit of time.
