Abstract
In this article, the five-parameter beta Kumaraswamy exponential distribution (BKw-E) is introduced, and some characterizations of this distribution are obtained. The shape of the hazard function and some other important properties-such as median, mode, quantile function, and mean-are studied. In addition, the moments, skewness, and kurtosis are found. Furthermore, important measures such as Renyi entropy and order statistics are obtained; these have applications in many fields. An example of a real data set is discussed.
