Abstract or Description

Weighted distributions occur naturally for some sampling plans in biometry, survival analysis and reliability. In this paper, important results on inequalities and bounds for weighted distributions in general and length-biased distributions in particular are proved for monotone hazard functions and mean residual life functions. Results on sampling and selection of experiments from weighted distributions as opposed to the parent or original distributions are also presented.
