When a unicorn is 2.5 years old, what is its age in human equivalent years? What about when it is 12 years old?

It's definitely not your fault, but for some reason I see so many students post the same unicorn question. That is the most bizarre word problem I have seen. Especially when as x gets infinitely large, the human's age gets closer to negative infinity.
Anyway, plug in x = 2.5 and x = 12.
