We have the next function


f(x)=ln(x+5)\text{ }

First, we need to calculate the derivate of the function


f^(\prime)(x)=(1)/(x+5)

the critical points are when the derivate is 0 or can be calculated

in this case, x=-5 is a critical point and it doesn't belong

to the interval given therefore the number of critical points is 0
