Answer

Domain = $\{(x,y)|y\leq 2x\}$ (see image)

Work Step by Step

Because of the restrictions for square roots, f is defined when $2x-y\geq 0$ that is, for (x,y) such that $y\leq 2x.$ The $\mathbb{R}^{2}$ plane is divided into two regions by the line y=2x. The domain contains the line (graph with solid line) The point (1,1) satisfies the inequality, so the domain contains the region it belongs to (below the line) Domain = $\{(x,y)|y\leq 2x\}$ (see image)
