Given the function g(x)=√x+4, which of the following values cannot be the domain of g?
A. X=1
B. X=2
C. X=12
D. X=-5


Answer :

Answer:

  D.  x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The square root function is only defined for non-negative arguments. For the function ...

  [tex]g(x)=\sqrt{x+4}[/tex]

this means we must have ...

  x +4 ≥ 0

  x ≥ -4 . . . . . . subtract 4 from both sides

All of the numbers on your answer choice list are more than -4 except -5.

  x = -5 is not in the domain of g(x)
