Find the Domain and Range f(x)=x+ square root of 4-x^2

$f (x) = x + \sqrt{4 - x^{2}}$

Set the radicand in $\sqrt{4 - x^{2}}$ greater than or equal to $0$ to find where the expression is defined.

$4 - x^{2} \geq 0$

Solve for $x$ .

Subtract $4$ from both sides of the inequality.

$- x^{2} \geq - 4$

Divide each term in $- x^{2} \geq - 4$ by $- 1$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $- x^{2} \geq - 4$ by $- 1$ . When multiplying or dividing both sides of an inequality by a negative value, flip the direction of the inequality sign.

$\frac{- x^{2}}{- 1} \leq \frac{- 4}{- 1}$

Simplify the left side.

Dividing two negative values results in a positive value.

$\frac{x^{2}}{1} \leq \frac{- 4}{- 1}$

Divide $x^{2}$ by $1$ .

$x^{2} \leq \frac{- 4}{- 1}$

Simplify the right side.

Divide $- 4$ by $- 1$ .

$x^{2} \leq 4$

Take the square root of both sides of the inequality to eliminate the exponent on the left side.

$\sqrt{x^{2}} \leq \sqrt{4}$

Simplify the equation.

Simplify the left side.

Pull terms out from under the radical.

$| x | \leq \sqrt{4}$

Simplify the right side.

Simplify $\sqrt{4}$ .

Rewrite $4$ as $2^{2}$ .

$| x | \leq \sqrt{2^{2}}$

Pull terms out from under the radical.

$| x | \leq | 2 |$

The absolute value is the distance between a number and zero. The distance between $0$ and $2$ is $2$ .

$| x | \leq 2$

Write $| x | \leq 2$ as a piecewise.

To find the interval for the first piece, find where the inside of the absolute value is non-negative.

$x \geq 0$

In the piece where $x$ is non-negative, remove the absolute value.

$x \leq 2$

To find the interval for the second piece, find where the inside of the absolute value is negative.

$x < 0$

In the piece where $x$ is negative, remove the absolute value and multiply by $- 1$ .

$- x \leq 2$

Write as a piecewise.

${\begin{cases} x \leq 2 & x \geq 0 \\ - x \leq 2 & x < 0 \end{cases}$

Find the intersection of $x \leq 2$ and $x \geq 0$ .

$0 \leq x \leq 2$

Solve $- x \leq 2$ when $x < 0$ .

Divide each term in $- x \leq 2$ by $- 1$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $- x \leq 2$ by $- 1$ . When multiplying or dividing both sides of an inequality by a negative value, flip the direction of the inequality sign.

$\frac{- x}{- 1} \geq \frac{2}{- 1}$

Simplify the left side.

Dividing two negative values results in a positive value.

$\frac{x}{1} \geq \frac{2}{- 1}$

$- 2 \leq x < 0$

Find the union of the solutions.

$- 2 \leq x \leq 2$

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