Answer:

The domain is
\boxed{D_f = [0, \infty)}.

Explanation:

Let
f(x) = (√(2x))/(x+1).

Since we have a fraction, we need to make sure that its denominator isn't zero, since division by zero isn't defined. This means that:


x+1 \\eq 0 \iff x \\eq -1.

On the other hand, there's also a square root, whose argument can't be negative. This means that:


2x \geq 0 \iff x \geq 0.

So the domain is:


\boxed{D_f =\{x\in\mathbb{R}: x\geq 0 \textrm{ and } x \\eq -1\} = [0, \infty)}.
