What is the domain of (f(x)=\sqrt{(x-2)(x-6)})?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ((-\infty,2]\cup[6,\infty))

The direct answer is option A: (-\infty,2]\cup[6,\infty). A square root is real only when its radicand, the expression inside it, is non-negative. Therefore we need (x-2)(x-6)≥0. The critical values are 2 and 6. For x<2 both factors are negative, so their product is positive; at x=2 it is zero. Between 2 and 6 the factors have opposite signs, so the product is negative. For x>6 both are positive, so the product is positive; x=6 is also included. Thus the domain is the two outer intervals. Option A is correct. Option B, [2,6], contains values where the product is negative, so the square root is not real. Option C, (2,6), has the same problem and also wrongly excludes endpoints. Option D excludes only 2 and 6, but it includes forbidden values such as 3. Memory cue: for a product of two linear factors with a positive sign outside, the non-negative regions lie outside the two roots.
