Math Problem Statement
Find the domain of the function h(x) = √(-x + 4) and write your answer using interval notation.
Solution
The problem asks to find the domain of the function:
Step-by-step solution:
-
The square root function requires its argument to be non-negative (i.e., ≥ 0).
-
Solve for :
Dividing by (remember to flip the inequality):
Domain:
The domain of the function is all values less than or equal to 4. In interval notation, this is:
This is the domain of .
