Algebra.Com's Answer #33984 by tutorcecilia(2152)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! [The radican (5-x) must be greater than or equal to zero because you cannot find the square root of a negative number. If the radicand is negative, it is an imaginary number. \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "g(x)=(sqrt)5-x [Set 5-x>=0] \n" ); document.write( "5-x>=0 [solve for x] \n" ); document.write( "5>=x or x<=5 [Same value] \n" ); document.write( "Than, the domain or all of the possible values for \"x\", must be less than or equal to 5. Try a test case. Pick the numbers 4 and 6. \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "4<=5 [This is a true statement] \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "So, 6<=5 is a false statement.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
