Find the domain
More Steps

Evaluate
8−x≥0
Move the constant to the right side
−x≥0−8
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−x≥−8
Change the signs on both sides of the inequality and flip the inequality sign
x≤8
2(8−x)×2(x8−x)=0,x≤8
Calculate
2(8−x)×2(x8−x)=0
Multiply the terms
2(8−x)×2x8−x=0
