Consider that the age x is of a unicorn of human equivalent years can be given by the formula f(x)=-0.001518x^4+0.097326x^3-1.3367x^2+12.46x+2.914

When a unicorn is 2.5 years old, what age is this in human equivalent years? How old will this unicorn be in human years when it is 12?

Answer provided by our tutors

x = 2.5

f(2.5) = -0.001518*2.5^4+0.097326*2.5^3-1.3367*2.5^2+12.46*2.5+2.914 = 27.17

When a unicorn is 2.5 years old, it's 27 in human equivalent years

x =12

f(12) = 96.65

When a unicorn is 12 years old, it's 96.65 in human equivalent years
