Last one.
Is |x-1| < 1? Basically the question asks is 0<x<2 true?
(1) (x-1)^2 <= 1 --> x^2-2x<=0 --> x(x-2)<=0 --> 0<=x<=2. x is in the range (0,2)inclusive . This is the trick here. x can be 0 or 2! Else it would be sufficient. So not sufficient.
(2) x^2 - 1 > 0 --> x<-1 or x>1. Not sufficient.
(1)+(2) Intersection of the ranges from 1 and 2 is 1<x<=2. Again 2 is included in the
