Answer

$\text{Domain: } [0,\infty) \\\text{Range: } [-1,\infty)$

Work Step by Step

The black graph is the parent graph, $ f(x)=\sqrt{x} .$ The red graph is the graph of $ h(x)=\sqrt{x}-1 .$ It is the result of shifting the points of the parent graph $1$ unit down. The $x-$values of the given function, $ h(x)=\sqrt{x}-1 ,$ are non-negative real numbers. The $y-$values are from $-1$ up to infinity. Hence, the given function has the following characteristics: \begin{array}{l}\require{cancel} \text{Domain: } [0,\infty) \\\text{Range: } [-1,\infty) .\end{array}
