Is \(|x+y|>|x+z|?\)
(1) \(y>z\)
2 > 1 when x = 2 gives YES
-2 > -3 when x = 2 gives NO
INSUFFCIEINT.
(2) \(x>0\)
Above situation in St. 1 still persists.
INSUFFICIENT.
Together 1 and 2
The example given above still works.
Thus,
INSUFFICIENT.

Question: Is \(|x+y|>|x+z|?\)
To answer this question we need to know
1) The relation between signs of x & y and signs of x & z
2) The comparison between absolute values of y and z
1) The relation between signs of x & y and signs of x & z
2) The comparison between absolute values of y and z
Statement 1: y > z
the absolute value comparison is missing and their relationship with sign of x is unknown too hence
NOT SUFFICIENT
Statement 2: x > 0
The absolute value comparison between y & z is missing and their relationship with sign of x is unknown too hence
NOT SUFFICIENT
Combining the statements
The absolute value comparison between y & z is missing and their relationship with sign of x is unknown too hence
NOT SUFFICIENT
