It should be:

Is |x| < 1?
(1) |x + 1| = 2 |x - 1|
(2) |x-3| not equal to 0

we've answered this one several times; this is probably the best thread.

i understand that this question is quite difficult to find with the search box, because of the nearly complete dearth of suitable search terms. therefore, i won't have to chastise you for not searching first. :/
