1 answer:
The total number of college students was 17.94 million.
Step-by-step explanation:
Percentage of part time students = 34%
Number of part time students = 6.1 million
Let,
x be the total number of students
According to statement,
34% of x = 6.1 million
Dividing both sides by 0.34
The total number of college students was 17.94 million.

This problem can be solve by graphing (technology), as suggested.
The answer is posted as an attached image. We see that after about 14.75 years, the invading species will surpass the indigenous population.
If it needs to be solved mathematically and accurately, the math is a little more advanced, using the bisection method, or Newton's method.
However, we can also do that by trial and error, starting from 14.75. It is easier than you might think.
Post if you would like to have more information on one or the other methods.
Note: the scale of y has been shrunk by 1000, so each unit on the y-axis represents 1000 frogs.
