algebra precalculus - Negative Squared Root on Quadratic Equation formula?

I have this basic problem:




In a farm, X animals are added to the farm. These animals gain weight according to the equation: 5002X gr. Which interval of animals can the farm take, if the total weight gain is greater than 30,600 Kg?




Original (Spanish - Español):




En un criadero de cuyes se integran x cuyes, si se tiene presente que los cuyes ganan peso en promedio de (5002x) gramos. ¿Qué intervalo de cuyes puede aceptar esta granja si la ganancia total de peso de los cuyes es mayor a 30600 Kg?





Step 1:



Total animals: x.



Weigthgain = (5002x) gr.



TotalWeightgain > 30600(1000) converting kg to gr.




Step 2:



x(5002x)>30600000



Step 3:



0>2x2500x+30600000



Step 4:




x=(500)+2(500)24(2)(30600000)2(2)



But as you can see, the sqrt is negative. So It does not exist.
What should be the next step?
