Answer

$$D = \left\{ {\left( {x,y} \right):y < {x^2}} \right\}$$

Work Step by Step

$$\eqalign{ & g\left( {x,y} \right) = \ln \left( {{x^2} - y} \right) \cr & {\text{Because }}g{\text{ involves a natural logarith function}},{\text{its domain consists}} \cr & {\text{of ordered pairs }}\left( {x,y} \right){\text{ for which }}{x^2} - y > 0. \cr & {x^2} - y > 0 \cr & {x^2} > y \cr & or \cr & y < {x^2} \cr & {\text{Therefore, the domain of }}f{\text{ is }}D = \left\{ {\left( {x,y} \right):y < {x^2}} \right\} \cr} $$
