Answer:
3 < x < 27
Step-by-step explanation:
We can't tell what "must ne greater" means, so we'll tell you the limits on the side length and you can choose the one that is relevant.
The third side of a triangle must have a length that lies between the difference and sum of the two lengths you know.
15 -12 = 3
15 +12 = 27
The value of x must be between 3 and 27:
3 < x < 27
__
If you allow the triangle to have zero area, then x can be 3 or 27. Many authors claim such a "triangle" is not allowed, so don't allow those cases.
