Someone Check my work! Determine the Domain See drawing below

OpenStudy (yamyam70):

or would that be [0 , 4] only if we consider the radical inside?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

hint: the inner radical exists if \[\Large x \geqslant 0\] furthermore we have the subsequent condition: \[\Large 2 - \sqrt x \geqslant 0\]

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

that additional condition, is equivalent to this one: \[\Large 2 \geqslant \sqrt x \]

OpenStudy (yamyam70):

If we consider both conditions , the inner radical and the whole radical, I need to make the inner radical exist, as well as meeting the subsequent condition, thats the rule right ?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

yes!

OpenStudy (yamyam70):

lol give me a moment Im trying to think about it

OpenStudy (yamyam70):

oh and I just found out that I cant make x negative

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

both of those conditions have to be checked

OpenStudy (yamyam70):

im thinking it should be all real numbers except , x would not equal to 0 and 4

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

hint: starting from this inequality: \[\Large 2 \geqslant \sqrt x \] square both sides, what do you get?

OpenStudy (yamyam70):

\[4 \ge x\]

OpenStudy (yamyam70):

its [ 0 , 4 ] is it ?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

correct! furthermore, as I wrote before, we have: \[\Large x \geqslant 0\] so, what can you conclude?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

that's right!

OpenStudy (yamyam70):

in overview Im getting the intersection of both conditions right ?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

yes!

OpenStudy (yamyam70):

I LOVE YOU

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

thanks! :)

OpenStudy (yamyam70):

now I feel confident in determining the D :)))))))

OpenStudy (michele_laino):
