Question

In a non-accelerated level flight... drag lift weight (gravity) thrust lift has to be greater than weight otherwise the plane would descend. thrust has to be greater than drag to keep the speed constant. thrust has to be equal to lift and drag has to be equal to weight. thrust has to be equal to drag and lift has to be equal to weight.
