Question 1121874: In administering rescue breathing on an adult, the rescuer firstly gives two regular sized breaths followed by a circle of ten breaths every minute.
a.Create a function where n represents the number of breaths you would need to administer to a victim over t number of minutes.
b. Describe in words, the input and output of the function you created.
c. What type of function did you create, and what would be the domain?
d. Create a table with 2 columns and list the input and output.

I'm not sure if I'm on the right track but I thought the function might be:
n(t)= 2 + 10n or n(t)= 2t + 10
It would be a linear function. I'm not sure about the domain.
