Math Problem Statement
Find the domain of the function. (Enter your answer using interval notation.) h(x) = root(5x − 2)
Solution
The function given is . To find the domain of this function, we need to determine for which values of the expression inside the square root is non-negative, since the square root of a negative number is not defined in the real number system.
So, we require:
Step 1: Solve the inequality.
Step 2: Domain in interval notation.
The function is defined for , so the domain of the function in interval notation is:
