Consider the following:
P(x year old survives 1 more year) = 0.99
P(x year old survives 10 more years) = 0.65
P(x-1 year old survives 2 more years) = 0.98505
P(x-1 year old survives to age (x+6)) = 0.8067
P(x+1 year old has a future lifetime between 7 and 9 years) = 0.124
Calculate the probability that an x+1 year old has a future lifetime between 5 and 7 years.
Given,
P(x year old survives 1 more year) = 0.99
P(x year old survives 10 more years) = 0.65
P(x-1 year old survives 2 more years) = 0.98505
P(x-1 year old survives to age (x+6)) = 0.8067
P(x+1 year old has a future lifetime between 7 and 9 years) = 0.124
the probability that an x+1 year old has a future lifetime between 5 and 7 years is
= P(x year old survives 10 more years) - P(x+1 year old has a future lifetime between 7 and 9 years)
= 0.65 - 0.124
= 0.526
