Solution

The correct option is D $6$
Given: $| x | = 1, | y - 6 - 8 i | = 3$ and $| z + 1 - 7 i | = 5$

$| z_{1} + z_{2} | \leq | z_{1} | + | z_{2} | \forall z_{1}, z_{2} \in C$
$\Rightarrow | x - z | + | y - z | \geq | (x - z) + (z - y) | = | x - y |$

Equality holds when $x, y, z$ are collinear points. (The points are collinear on the line $3 y = 4 x$ in the Argand plane)

$| x - y |_{min} = C_{1} C_{2} - (r_{1} + r_{2}) = 10 - (1 + 3) = 6$
