4、xyz<>0, 问x(y+z)>0? (1)|x+y|=|x|+|y| (2)|y+z|=|y|+|z|
so if we know xyz != 0, we want to know whether x(y + z) > 0
1) |x + y| = |x| + |y| => x*y >=0(meaning x and y have the same sign), since we know xyz != 0, that means none of the x, y, and z is 0, thus we know that x*y >0, now, even though we know x*y > 0, but x and y could be both positive and negative, thus x + y could be greater than 0 and less than 0, since we have no further information about z other than the fact that it's not 0, 1) by itself is not sufficient to establish the answer
2) |y+z|=|y|+|z| => y*z >=0, because of the same reason that applies to 1), 2) is not sufficient to know the answer
now with 1) and 2) together we know that x*y > 0 => x and y have the same sign, y*z > 0 => y and z have the same sign => x, y, and z all have the same sign, since xyz != 0, it is sufficient to establish that x*(y + z) > 0, thus 1) and 2) together is sufficient to know the answer, thus the answer is C
