We have `y= f(x) = sqrt(|x|- {x})`
`f(x) ` is defined if `|x| ge {x}`.
To find the solution to the above inequality, we draw the graphs of `y= |x| and y = {x}`.
From the graph, the required values of x are `x in (-oo, -(1)/(2)] uu[0, oo)`, where the graph of `y= |x|` either lies above the graph of `y= {x}` or coincides.
