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) Responses 10°C 10 degrees C −2°C negative 2 degrees C 2°C 2 degrees C −10°C
The initial value in this equation represents the temperature at noon, which is the starting point.
Since x represents the number of hours after noon, when x equals 0, the equation becomes:
2(0) + 10 = 10
Therefore, the initial value is 10°C.
