any idea

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well, what can you say for a number which is under square root? that number has to be positive do you agree?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so, x+6 should be positive quantity for it to be defined. agree?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so, x+6>0 that is what a positive number means. it t is a positive number, then t>0. hence x+6>0 then, x>-6.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright so whats the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what wrong if x+6=0? nothing wrong in that. if x+6=0, then \[\sqrt{x+6}=\sqrt{0}=0\] meaning, x+6 can also be equal to zero. thus, the domain of x is \[x \ge6\]
