Question

The current temperature in degrees Celsius, where x
equals the number of hours after noon, is 2x+10
. Interpreting this equation, what is the initial value? (1 point)

2°C
2 degrees C

−2°C
negative 2 degrees C

10°C

Answer 1

10°C

Because the initial value is the temperature at x = 0 (noon): T(0) = 2(0) + 10 = 10°C.
