Answer

$[6, \infty)$

Work Step by Step

$\bf{\text{Solution Outline:}}$ The domain of the given function, $ f(x)=\sqrt{x-6} ,$ is the permissible values of $x.$ $\bf{\text{Solution Details:}}$ With an even index (index equals $ 2 $), then the radicand should be a nonnegative number. Hence, \begin{array}{l}\require{cancel} x-6\ge0 \\\\ x\ge6 .\end{array} Hence, the domain is the interval $ [6, \infty) .$
