Hi,
The correct answer is D) but why 2) only can prove?
From the text, x>-y and asking if X is larger than the absolute value of Y.
So, for example, 4> - 2 -- OK
4 > - 6 ---Not OK
I know 1) can prove it by telling us both are positive and still X is larger than Y, but what dose 2) tell you to prove this?? hmm. Can anyone please explain?
If x + y >0, is x > |y|?
(1) x > y
(2) y < 0
