problem_activity: The estimated size for a population of rabbits and a population of coyotes in a desert habitat are shown in the table. The estimated population sizes were recorded as a part of a long-term study related to the effect of commercial development on native animal species.

Write the function for each situation and then calculate the two different numbers of years where the population estimate is about 13,000 for rabbits and 2,100 for coyotes.
