If the domain of the square root function f(x) is x<=7, which statement must be true?
7 is subtracted from the x-term inside the radical.
The radical is multiplied by a negative number.
7 is added to the radical term.
The x-term inside the radical has a negative coefficient.

Consider the funcion  y=\sqrt{x}  . The dmain of this function is  \ge 0 and the range is  y\ge 0 .

Now if  x\le 7 you can calculate that

 x-7\le 0,\\ 7-x\ge 0

and the function  y=\sqrt{7-x}  will have the domain  x\le 7 (state this using that expression under the root is  \ge 0 ).

As you can see the x-term inside the radical has a negative coefficient.

Answer: correct choice is D.
