Answer

$(-\infty,0]\cup[6,\infty)$

Work Step by Step

We are given the function: $$g(x)=\sqrt[4]{x^2-6x}.$$ The domain of the function is the set of value for $x$ so that the radical makes sense. Since the radical is of even order ($4$), the radicand must be positive. We solve the inequality: $$\begin{align*} x^2-6x&\geq 0\\ x(x-6)&\geq 0. \end{align*}$$ The solution set is: $$(-\infty,0]\cup[6,\infty).$$
