Question 622869: Essay; show all work. Consider that the age, x, of a unicorn in human equivalent years can be given by the formula f(x) = - 0.0021718x4 + 0.027326x3 – 0.3367x2 + 12.46x + 2.914. When a unicorn is 2.5 years old, what is its age in human equivalent years? What about when it is 12 years old?

You can put this solution on YOUR website! 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.
