Aims epidemic. One way to gauge the toll of the AIDS epidemic in Sub-Saharan Africa is to compare life expectancies with the figures that would have been projected in the absence of AIDS. Use the broken-line graphs shown to estimate the life expectancy of a child born in the year $2012$.What would the life expectancy of the same child be in the absence of AIDS? For which years of birth is the life expectancy less than $50$ years? If there were no AIDS epidemic, for which years of birth would the life expectancy be less than $50$ years.
