Answer:


x\ge-2

Step-by-step explanation: The product has two square-roots being multipled together, the inside of each of the root must be greater than or equal to zero, this in Mathematics can be written as follows:


\begin{gathered} \sqrt[]{x-5}*\sqrt[]{x+2} \\ \end{gathered}

Therefore, applying the condition leads us to the following conclusion:


\begin{gathered} \sqrt[]{x-5}*\sqrt[]{x+2} \\ \therefore\rightarrow \\ x-5\ge0\rightarrow x\ge5 \\ x+2\ge0\rightarrow x\ge-2 \end{gathered}

Therefore it follows that x must be:


x\ge-2
