To determine

a)

To find:

The probability that a randomly selected 65-year-old American male will live beyond 80-years of age (at least 15 more years). According to the National Center for Health Statistics, the life expectancy for a 65-year-old American male is 17.0 years. Assuming that from age 65, the survival of American males follows an exponential distribution.

To determine

b)

To find:

The probability that a randomly selected 65-year-old American male live less than 10 more years.
