Answer 2

Answer:   3 < x < 34

=============================================================

Explanation:

Ignore the sides that are 'a' units long.

We'll compare the sides that are 26 units and 27 units long. We see the 27 unit side is larger, which makes the 93 degree angle larger than the 3x-9 degree angle.

Symbolically, we would say

3x-9 < 93

At the same time, the 3x-9 is also larger than 0

So

3x-9 > 0 or 0 < 3x-9

Put together, we can form this compound inequality

0 < 3x-9 < 93

-------------------

Let's isolate x like so

0 < 3x-9 < 93

0+9 < 3x-9+9 < 93+9 .... add 9 to all sides

9 < 3x < 102

9/3 < 3x/3 < 102/3 .... divide all sides by 3

3 < x < 34

x is any number between 3 and 34, but cannot equal either endpoint

For example, x = 10 is valid since 3 < 10 < 34 is true. But x = 50 is not a solution since 3 < 50 < 34 is false. We can't have x = 3 and we also can't have x = 34 either, but we can have anything in between those endpoints.
