Find exhaustive range of $k$ such that $f(x)=\frac{x-1}{k-x^2}$ never belongs to $\left[-1 \:\: \frac{-1}{3}\right]$

Find exhaustive range of $k$ such that $$f(x)=\frac{x-1}{k-x^2}$$ never belongs to $\left[-1 \:\: \frac{-1}{3}\right]$ My try: Letting $$y=\frac{x-1}{k-x^2}$$ we get $$yx^2+x-(1+ky)=0$$ and since $...
