The problem
Need to find the domain and range
Answer provided by our tutors
This problem is really more a test of understanding the definitions of "domain" and "range". The domain of a function are the legal values one can put into the function and one typically is looking for radicals [can't take a negative square root] or fractions [can't divide by zero] to determine the domain of a function. The range of a function is the set of all values a function is able to produce.

Using doyourmath.com, however, look for valid numbers for "the square root of 6x-3", solve "6x-3>=0". Solving the equation "y=sqrt(6x-3)" shows which legal values are for range.
So the domain is examined by solving "6x-3>=0".
So it demonstrates that the domain is "x>=(1/2)".
