Incredibly helpful! Thank you so much grenyc!

The question reads as follows: If the reciprocal of the negative integer X is greater than the sum of Y and Z, then which of the following must be true? (A) X > Y + Z (B) Y and Z are positive © 1 > X(Y +Z) (D) 1 (E) 1/X > Z- Y I understand how to arrive at the correct answer (D) but am struggling to understand answer choice A. According to the solutions, answer choice A would only be true if X was equal to negative 1. However, I can't seem to figure out how to demonstrate this. Can anyone provide an example or more thorough explanation? Thanks!
