Daphne turns the heat up on her thermometer to 24 degrees Celcius. Her house slowly begins to warm up. The temperature in her house, after she turns her thermometer up, can be tracked using the function t(h)=2h+16, where t(h) is the temperature (in degrees Celcius) after h hours. What was the initial temperature of Daphne's house?
