y greater-than-or-equal-to 0

y greater-than-or-equal-to StartRoot 5 EndRoot

y greater-than-or-equal-to 5

Answer:

y greater-than-or-equal-to 0

Explanation:

we know that

The domain of a function is the set of all possible values of x

The range of a function is the complete set of all possible resulting values of y, after we have substituted the domain.

we have


y=√(x+5)

Remember that the radicand of the function must be greater than or equal to zero

so


x+5\geq 0

solve for x


x\geq -5

The domain is the interval ----> [-5,∞)

For x=-5


y=√(-5+5)=0

so

The range is the interval ----> [0,∞)


y\geq 0
