Question
Let the function $f$ be defined by the equation $y=f(x)$ where $x$ and $f(x)$ are real numbers. Find the domain of each function.$$f(x)=\sqrt{x^{2}-2 x-3}$$
Step 1
Since it is a square root function, the expression under the square root must be greater than or equal to zero. So, we have the inequality $x^{2}-2 x-3 \geq 0$. Show more…
