Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this answer you would need to use the formula x(x+2) = 360 where x is an even number.  This is the formula because any number plus 2 equals the next consecutive, even whole number.   If we look at the factors of 360 we see the factors-

360: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 24, 30, 36, 40, 45, 60, 72, 90, 120, 180, and 360.

If we look through all of the factors 18 and 20 are the only ones with a 2 number difference.

Next, if we plug 18 into the equation:

x(x+2) =360

18(18+2) = 360

324+36 = 360

360 = 360

Since the equation works, x = 18.

Answer:

  9.  c. 1

  10.  c. y = 15/x

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for inverse variation can be written as ...

  y = k/x

The value of k can be determined from given values of x and y. Multiply by x to get ...

  k = xy

Solving for x, you get ...

  x = k/y

___

9. k = (1/7)(49) = 7

  x = k/y = 7/7

  x = 1

__

10. k = (3)(5) = 15

  y = 15/x
