Brittany was tracking the increasing temperature in the morning. At 8 a.m., it was 68 degrees Fahrenheit. At 10 a.m., it was 74 degrees Fahrenheit. If Brittany made the function f(x) = 3x + 36, what would the 36 represent?

Brittney was tracking the increasing temperature in the morning, it was 68 degrees fahrenheit at 8 a.m., and 74 degrees fahrenheit at 10 a.m. If Brittany made the function f(x) = 3x + 36, the number '36' would represent the temperature at midnight.
