Worksheet variations

A square root is only defined when the number inside is not negative. For f(x) = √(ax + b), solve ax + b ≥ 0. If a is positive, x ≥ −b/a. If a is negative, dividing by a flips the sign, so x ≤ −b/a.

How to solve it: a worked example

Evaluate each function, or find its domain.

  1. Startf(x)f(x)f(x) === 2x + 55\sqrt{2x\ +\ 55}2x + 55​Find f(−3).\mathrm{f}(-3).f(−3).
  2. Substitute x and simplify inside the root49\sqrt{49}49​
  3. The square root of 49 is 7777
  4. Answer777

Common mistakes to watch for

  • Splitting the root: √(ax + b) is not √(ax) + √b.
  • Forgetting to flip the inequality when dividing by a negative a.
  • Taking the root of a negative number, which is not a real value.

FAQ

Why must the inside of a square root be at least 0?

A real square root of a negative number doesn't exist, so every x you can use must make ax + b ≥ 0. That set of x-values is the domain.

How does a negative coefficient change the domain?

Solving −2x + 6 ≥ 0 gives x ≤ 3, not x ≥ 3, because dividing both sides by −2 flips the inequality.

Is every worksheet different?

Yes. Numbers are generated each time, and the answer key is calculated for that sheet. Swap any single question and its answer updates too.

Can I mix values and domains of radical functions with other skills?

Yes. In the generator, add more skills; each gets its own section on the sheet with its own instructions.

Is it free to print?

Yes. Generating and printing from the browser is free with no sign-up. PDF downloads need a free account.
