Find the Domain f(x) = square root of 4-4x

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

Step 1

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

$4 - 4 x \geq 0$

Step 2

Solve for $x$ .

Subtract $4$ from both sides of the inequality.

$- 4 x \geq - 4$

Divide each term in $- 4 x \geq - 4$ by $- 4$ and simplify.

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

$\frac{- 4 x}{- 4} \leq \frac{- 4}{- 4}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $- 4$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{- 4 x}{- 4} \leq \frac{- 4}{- 4}$

Divide $x$ by $1$ .

$x \leq \frac{- 4}{- 4}$

Simplify the right side.

Divide $- 4$ by $- 4$ .

$x \leq 1$

Step 3

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