Notes to answerer
Asker: ¿Es posible entonces que pueda decir: curva de distribución acumulativa invertida?

neutral  DLyons: If you Google the English, you'll find "reverse" rarely used and by non-native speakers. "Inverse" IS what is meant here!

  -> "Curva de distribución acumulativa inversa" and the one you gave as an answer are right. In Spanish we use both "inversa/invertida/hacia atrás" indistinctly.
