    If this trend continues for which birth year will the average life expectancy be

    85 years? I need help with this story problem. I need to figure out how to set up an equation. HERE IS THE STORY PROBLEM: "According to the mathematical model, the average life expectancy for American men born in 1900 was 55 years. Life expectancy has increased by about 0.2 year for each birth year after 1900. Use this information to solve Exercise 23."
