SOLUTION: `Life expectancies at birth for men and women can be modeled by the following
functions:
w(x)= 0.126x+76.74
M(x)= 0.126x+69.11
W(x) represents the life expectancy of

Question 251942: `Life expectancies at birth for men and women can be modeled by the following
functions:
w(x)= 0.126x+76.74
M(x)= 0.126x+69.11
W(x) represents the life expectancy of women and M(x) represents the life
expectancy of men. The x represents the years since 1975. (x=0 corresponds to
the year 1975, x=5 corresponds to 1980, and so on).
this goes on until 2000
x is the years since 1975. 1975 0 1985-5 1990-15 1995- 20 2000- 25
I am not understanding this I also have to figure out on a slope is the life
expectantcy of men or women increasing more rapidly. then I have to determine
the birth years in a inequality where the men life expectancy are greater than
women
''.Write an inequality to determine the birth years of women whose life expectancy is at least 85.

-----------------------------------
I am not understanding this. I also have to figure out on a slope; is the life
expectancy of men or women increasing more rapidly.
The slopes are the same for men and for women.
--------------------
then I have to determine the birth years in a inequality where the men life expectancy are greater than women
M(x)>W(x)
0.126x+69.11 > 0.126x+76.74
When 69.11 > 76.74
which is never.
---------------------
''.Write an inequality to determine the birth years of women whose life expectancy is at least 85.
---
0.126x + 76.74 >= 85
0.126x >= 8.26
x >= 65.555555
1975 + 65.555. = 2040.5555
Rounding up the birth year will be 2041
