Is |v - x| < 8?
(1) v and x are integers
(2) |v| = 4 and |x| = 6
statement 1: |v - x| can be positive or negative; not sufficient.
statement 2: v = 4,-4 x = 6,-6
case A: v = -4 x = -6
|-4 - (-6)| < 8; 2 < 8
case B: v = -4 x = 6
|-4 - 6| < 8; |-10| < 8
we are getting two possible results, not sufficient.
combining both statements does not provide any new information.

In this question, we can immediately reject A and D as knowing that v and x are integers will do nothing to sort out whether the absolute value of their difference is smaller than 8. Now for statement 2, 4 situations are possible (both +ve, 2, both - ve 2, when only v is +ve, 10, when only x is +ve, 10) so we cannot know whether the exact value is greater or smaller than 8. so insufficient.
E is the CA.
