Let and . What is the domain of ? |
Make sure you understand the problem fully: What is the question asking you to do? Are there specific conditions or constraints that you should take note of? How will you know if your answer is correct from your work only? Can you rephrase the question in your own words in a way that makes sense to you? |
If you are stuck, check the hint below. Consider it for a while. Does it give you a new idea on how to approach the problem? If so, try it! |
Hint |
---|
Recall that from part (a), we have that
when dealing with square roots, what problems could arise? The domain of this function should avoid these problems. |
Checking a solution serves two purposes: helping you if, after having used the hint, you still are stuck on the problem; or if you have solved the problem and would like to check your work.

Found a typo? Is this solution unclear? Let us know here.
Please rate my easiness! It's quick and helps everyone guide their studies. Looking at the outside function, we want to find for to be defined. So we want . Looking at the inside function, we want so . Combining the two, we get: and . Hence the domain of is or . |
