Section 7.9 Square Root Functions and Inequalities

This document provides definitions and examples of square root functions and inequalities. It defines a square root function as a function containing the square root of a variable. The domain of a square root function is found by setting the inside of the square root greater than or equal to zero. Examples are given of graphing square root functions and inequalities and finding related values like the domain, range, x-intercept and y-intercept. Students are assigned problems finding these values for given square root expressions.
