Answer:


0\leq x<\infty

Explanation:

The function
y=√(x) is not defined for negative numbers in the domain as they produce non-real results. Therefore, all positive numbers including 0 are included in the domain, so the domain of the function would be
0\leq x<\infty.

I've attached a diagram to help you visualize the domain.
