The third side must be >2 and < 18
To test if a triangle is acute, right or obtuse:
1) Square all 3 sides
2) Sum the squares of the 2 shortest sides
3) Compare this sum to side 3 squared
if sum > side 3 squared it is an acute triangle
if sum = side 3 squared it is a right triangle
if sum < side 3 squared it is an obtuse triangle
The shortest side 2 can be is "less than 2" so we'll say it is 2.00000001
three sides squared =

<span>
4.00000004
</span>
</span>
</span>
64
100
Summing the 2 shortest sides 4.00000004 + 64 = <span>68.00000004
</span><span>68.00000004 is less than 100 so it is an obtuse triangle no matter how long the third side is.

Idk what linear combination is but you can solve this way:
3x+y=4
-2x-y=-5
x=-1
3(-1)+y=4
-3+y=4
y=7
So x=-1 and y=7
