Solving for variable 'k'.

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-3 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-3'.
-0.3333333333kx + k2 + -1x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add 'x2' to each side of the equation.
-0.3333333333kx + k2 + -1x2 + x2 = 0 + x2

Combine like terms: -1x2 + x2 = 0
-0.3333333333kx + k2 + 0 = 0 + x2
-0.3333333333kx + k2 = 0 + x2
Remove the zero:
-0.3333333333kx + k2 = x2

The k term is kx.  Take half its coefficient (0.5x).
Square it (0.25x2) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.25x2' to each side of the equation.
-0.3333333333kx + k2 + 0.25x2 = x2 + 0.25x2

Combine like terms: x2 + 0.25x2 = 1.25x2
-0.3333333333kx + k2 + 0.25x2 = 1.25x2

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(k + 0.5x)(k + 0.5x) = 1.25x2

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.118033989x

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(k + 0.5x) equal to 1.118033989x and -1.118033989x.

Subproblem 1

k + 0.5x = 1.118033989x Simplifying k + 0.5x = 1.118033989x Solving k + 0.5x = 1.118033989x Solving for variable 'k'. Move all terms containing k to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.5x' to each side of the equation. k + 0.5x + -0.5x = 1.118033989x + -0.5x Combine like terms: 0.5x + -0.5x = 0.0 k + 0.0 = 1.118033989x + -0.5x k = 1.118033989x + -0.5x Combine like terms: 1.118033989x + -0.5x = 0.618033989x k = 0.618033989x Simplifying k = 0.618033989x

Subproblem 2

k + 0.5x = -1.118033989x Simplifying k + 0.5x = -1.118033989x Solving k + 0.5x = -1.118033989x Solving for variable 'k'. Move all terms containing k to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.5x' to each side of the equation. k + 0.5x + -0.5x = -1.118033989x + -0.5x Combine like terms: 0.5x + -0.5x = 0.0 k + 0.0 = -1.118033989x + -0.5x k = -1.118033989x + -0.5x Combine like terms: -1.118033989x + -0.5x = -1.618033989x k = -1.618033989x Simplifying k = -1.618033989x

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. k = {0.618033989x, -1.618033989x}
