The mean is 10,724.28.

Explanation:

The mean is all of the values divided by the number of values there are.

So what you have to do is add all of the numbers and divide it by the amount of numbers there are.

10,150+10,211+10,424+10,769+10,884+11,155+11,477= 75,070.

Since there are 7 numbers, divide 75,070/7 and you get your mean, which is 10,724.28 rounded.

If the number of owls and squirrels will continue to increase.

If there are 1000 squirrels, then the number of owls would be

$\dfrac{30}{45}=\dfrac{x}{1000}\\\\x=\dfrac{30\times 1000}{45}\\\\x=666.67\\\\x\approx 667$

Hence, there are 667 owls for every 1000 squirrels.
