Answers
Answer:
The domain of this function is \displaystyle{x}\ge-{4}x≥−4, since x cannot be less than \displaystyle-{4}−4. To see why, try out some numbers less than \displaystyle-{4}−4 (like \displaystyle-{5}−5 or \displaystyle-{10}−10) and some more than \displaystyle-{4}−4 (like \displaystyle-{2}−2 or \displaystyle{8}8) in your calculator. The only ones that "work" and give us an answer are the ones greater than or equal to \displaystyle-{4}−4. This will make the number under the square root positive.
Notes:
The enclosed (colored-in) circle on the point \displaystyle{\left(-{4},{0}\right)}(−4,0). This indicates that the domain "starts" at this point.
