Topic

Rationals and Radicals

Description

Graphs of radical functions have a characteristic shape where the domain is limited to values resulting in a positive radicand. For y = √x, the domain is x >= 0, and the range is y >= 0. This highlights the inherent properties of square root functions. Introduces the concept of radical graphs and their domain/range constraints, setting a foundation for graph behavior analysis.
