We will have the following:

Now, we want to operate like terms and take to "solve for x" using the quadratic expression, that is:

No, in order to determine the possible real values for "k" we have to analyze the value under the root, so:

Now, we will have to use the quadratic expression again to determine the values for "k" that make the inequality true, that is:

So, the values for which the inequality and thus the expression under the root are true are then given by:

In other notation:
