That is, the edge passage time is taken independently to be 1 with probability $1-p$ and 0 otherwise. Let ${μ(p)}$ be the time constant. We prove in this paper that \[ μ(p_1)-μ({p_2})\ge \frac{μ(p_2)}{1-p_2}(p_2-p_1)\] for all $ 0\leq p_1<p_2< 1$ by using Russo's formula.7 pagesProbabilityMathematical Physics60K35; 82B43On a Lower Bound for the Time Constant of First-Passage Percolationtext
