Average life is from 3-5 years. If you run the battery down you shorten it's life.
The battery life of a hybrid (for instance, a Toyota Prius) is warrantied for up to 8 years. Engineers say the average life is actually longer than that. Other hybrid models have similar claims.
No, the timing chain is designed to last the life of the engine and is normally replaced during a complete engine rebuild.
Either something is draining the power - or the battery is at the end of its useful life.
As far as I know, there is no national database of battery life statistics, but just from personal experience, having owned two Toyota echos (2000 and 2001) the original battery lasted 9 years in both. If it starts taking longer to start your car, especially after it has been sitting in cold weather, its a sign that the battery is near the end of its life. You can buy a good quality replacement battery for as little as $65 with more cold crank amps than the original OEM battery (most have a 3-4 year warranty).
The battery on a 2008 Chevy Cobalt LT is located in the trunk of the car, underneath the carpet panel, near the spare tire well. The battery is located in the trunk to prolong the battery life by up to 5 years.
Matrix is a place of origin that gives life or birth to something.
