Answer:

E

Explanation:

the reason is, for a direct relation between x and z we have too little information.

z could be huge, much, much bigger than y and x, or just bigger by 1 than y.

so, assume e.g. the following 2 scenarios

z = 6

y = 5

x = 4

and

z = 600

y = 26

x = 3

A

x + y > z

is true for the first scenario, but not for the second. so, it is not always true.

B

z - x < z - y

no you subtract something smaller, so the result is bigger. this is not true for any of the scenarios.

C

xz > yz

no, z is the same part in both sides, and when it gets multiplied by something smaller, the result is smaller. this is not true for any of the scenarios.

D

z/x < z/y

no, again z is the same part in both sides, and when it gets divided by something smaller, the result is bigger. this is not true for any of the scenarios.

E

yz > xy

in this case y is the same part on both sides. when it gets multiplied by something bigger, the result will be bigger. so, this is true in all cases.
