$f (x) = \sqrt{x - 8}$

Step 1

Find the domain to determine if the expression is continuous.

Tap for more steps...

Step 1.1

Set the radicand in $\sqrt{x - 8}$ greater than or equal to $0$ to find where the expression is defined.

$x - 8 \geq 0$

Step 1.2

Add $8$ to both sides of the inequality.

$x \geq 8$

Step 1.3

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

Interval Notation:

$[8, \infty)$
