$\sqrt{x - 3} - \sqrt{x + 3}$

Step 1

Set the radicand in $\sqrt{x - 3}$ greater than or equal to $0$ to find where the expression is defined.

$x - 3 \geq 0$

Step 2

Add $3$ to both sides of the inequality.

$x \geq 3$

Step 3

Set the radicand in $\sqrt{x + 3}$ greater than or equal to $0$ to find where the expression is defined.

$x + 3 \geq 0$

Step 4

Subtract $3$ from both sides of the inequality.

$x \geq - 3$

Step 5

The domain is all values of $x$ that make the expression defined.
