f(x) = x^(1/2)
f(x) =
You can only find the square root of a number that is greater than or equal to zero. You cannot take the square root of a negative number. Otherwise, it is considered an imaginary number (i).
.
Since zero is neither negative nor positive, it is considered a "non-negative" number. So, x>=0 or x must be equal to or greater than all non-negative real numbers.
