The student's statement about the life expectancy of a female born in 2020 would need to be clarified. An African American female born in 2020 has a life expectancy of 79.2 years (not 72.6 years). The life expectancy of an African American male born in 2020 is 72.6 years. Women tend to have a longer life expectancy than men. |
