Find the domain of the real-valued function \(f(x)=\sqrt{-10x^2-11x+6}\).Give the endpoints in your answer as common fractions, not mixed numbers or decimals.
Note that the function value under the radical canot be less than zero
Set this equal to 0
-10x^2 -11x + 6 = 0 multiply through by -1
10x^2 + 11x - 6 = 0 factor
(5x - 2)(2x + 3) = 0 set each factor to 0 and we solve for x
This gives that x = 2/5 and x = -3/2
The answer comes from these two intervals (-inf, -3/2) U (2/5, inf) or from the interval [-3/2, 2/5]
And in the original function, the domain of [-3/2, 2/5 ] will make the quantity under the radical greater than or equal to 0
