Let L be the number of hours Bao will walk dogs in a week.
Bao makes 15*L dollars for walking dogs.
Bao makes 10*15 = <<15*10=150>>150 dollars lifeguarding.
Thus, Bao must make 180-150 = <<180-150=30>>30 dollars walking dogs.
Since Bao makes 6 dollars per hour walking dogs, she must work at least 30/6 = <<30/6=5>>5 hours walking dogs. Answer: \boxed{5}.
Bao is working two summer jobs, making $15 per hour lifeguarding and making $6 per hour walking dogs. In a given week, she can work at most 18 total hours and must earn a minimum of $180. If Bao worked 10 hours lifeguarding, determine all possible values for the number of whole hours walking dogs that she must work to meet her requirements.

DETERMINE ALL POSSIBLE VALUES
We know that Bao must work at least 5 hours walking dogs.
Since she can work at most 18 total hours in a week and she has already worked 10 hours lifeguarding, she can work at most 18 - 10 = 8 hours walking dogs.
Therefore, Bao must work anywhere from 5 to 8 hours walking dogs in order to meet her requirements. The possible values for the number of whole hours walking dogs that she must work are 5, 6, 7, and 8.
