From HTP3 2-10.1:
A life aged 55 is subject to three sources of decrement. Force 1 is constant force =.04, #2 is deMoivre with omega =100 in its single decrement table, and #3 is de moivre with omega = 94.17. What is the prob. that decrement happens between times 3 and 5 and decrement happens from cause 1? ans. = .05163.
My thought is Integrate from 3 to 5, p(tau)*mu(1). This lead to a messy int by parts and I was still off by quite a bit. I went through the integration twice and came up with the same answer, which means that I still probably screwed up the calculus. My first guess is that I am missing something conceptually. Thanks in advance.
