Split it into two parts.

allows you to divide both sides by k and you have a false statement:
; so you must expect that . k can be any value as long as it is NEGATIVE.

The other part is ,

.

The compound inequality must have the parts of the solutions which are true for both parts. The parts of their solutions in common is .
