A curve has equation \(y = x^3 + 3x^2 - 9x + k\), where \(k\) is a constant.
(i) Write down an expression for \(\frac{dy}{dx}\).
(ii) Find the \(x\)-coordinates of the two stationary points on the curve.
(iii) Hence find the two values of \(k\) for which the curve has a stationary point on the \(x\)-axis.
