Wonderful! If we introduce another function g ( x ) = 1 − x and positive integer n , what can we conclude for the domain of g n ∘ f ( x ) ?
Regarding moderator note: Is the domain x>= 0 ?
I am quite confused of the possible solutions of this specific problem that include the union of positive real numbers and zero the apparent positive real numbers excluding {0,1} the infinite real numbers contained as decimal and two natural numbers and other possible answers, the specific denotation of the third answer is incorrect to the denotation utilized in mathematics; * is it not? *
as domain means the value for which f(x) is not a negative o now you may proceed as others have said
this problem is based on fact that inside the square root we can not have negative argument ,so first thing x>=0 (for inner squareroot)........(1) now for outer square root : 1-x^1/2>=0 1>=x^1/2 since on both side there is positive number so we can square on both sides 1>=x...(2) now taking intersection of both solution set 1&2 0=<x<=1
Solve for 1-x^1/2>=0 & x>=0 as while finding domain of a composite function we go outside to inside.=>x lies in [0,1] &x>=0 which upon intersection gives x in [0,1]
Since domain means the set of possible values of x with which f(x) will be a real no, therefore, 1 − x must be a non-negative value Thus, x has to be less than or equal one.. So we only have the interval [0,1] that can fit.
1 − x must be a NON-NEGATIVE value, not positve.
Beautiful reasoning

The argument of both square roots must be non-negative, meaning that x ≥ 0 and 1 − x ≥ 0 (or 1 ≥ x ).Thus it is required that 1 ≥ x ≥ 0 .
