The correct option is
D 1≤t≤3|x|+|y|=|x+y| if x and y are of same sign, i.e. both ≥0 or both ≤0
Therefore,
|x+y|(|x|+|y|)=1 if x and y are of same sign.
From above, it follows that if x,y and z are all of same sign, then the equation is equals to 3.
The other possibility is that two are of same sign and the third with the opposite sign.
Let x and y are of same sign with losing generality.
In that case,
|x+y|(|x|+|y|)=1,
while 0≤|x+z|(|x|+|z|)<1 and
0≤|y+z|(|y|+|z|)<1.
Thus established that:
(a) The upper limit is 3 i.e. the value when x,y and z are all of same sign.
(b) The lower limit is at least 1, since the same signed pair yield 1, while any opposite signs pair yield at least 0.
To establish 1 as the lower limit, let x=y=z.
Then, the equation resolves to a value of 1.
Hence, the answer is 1≤t≤3.
