We need to know if -2 is in s.

1. 1 is in S

From I) we have -1 is also in S
From II) we have 1 -1 = 0 is also in S. Insufficient.

NOTE: It might be tempting to say 1 is in S so 1+1 should also be in S based on II) but that would be adding the same number to itself, which is not mentioned in S. It only talks of 2 different members being added.

2. 0 is in S

We already knew that from I) and it didn't help us. Insufficient.

1 and 2 --> No new info. Insuff.
