Answer

The domain is the set of real numbers greater than or equal to zero.

Work Step by Step

The given function is $y=\sqrt{2x}+7$ The radicand cannot be negative. So, $2x$ is greater than or equal to zero. $\Rightarrow 2x\geq 0$ Divide each side by $2$. $\Rightarrow x\geq 0$ Hence, the domain is the set of real numbers greater than or equal to zero.
