Question

In old-growth forests of douglas fir, the spotted owl dines mainly on flying squirrels. If we left When the initial population is 30 owls and 45 squirrels, then the number of rows and squirrels will continue to increase. Eventually there will be about (round to the nearest whole number) how many owls for every 1000 squirrels

Answer 1

Answer: There are 667 owls for every 1000 squirrels.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of owls = 30

Number of squirrels = 45

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

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

`(30)/(45)=(x)/(1000)\\\\x=(30* 1000)/(45)\\\\x=666.67\\\\x\approx 667`

Hence, there are 667 owls for every 1000 squirrels.
