The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the greatest value of \( |z + 1| \) given that \( |z + 4| \leq 3 \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Given Condition**: The condition \( |z + 4| \leq 3 \) describes a circle in the complex plane centered at \( -4 \) (which is the point \(-4 + 0i\)) with a radius of \( 3 \). 2. **Expressing \( |z + 1| \)**: We want to express \( |z + 1| \) in terms of \( |z + 4| \): \[ |z + 1| = |(z + 4) - 3| = |(z + 4) + (-3)| \] 3. **Applying the Triangle Inequality**: By the triangle inequality, we have: \[ |a + b| \leq |a| + |b| \] where \( a = z + 4 \) and \( b = -3 \). Thus, \[ |z + 1| \leq |z + 4| + |-3| = |z + 4| + 3 \] 4. **Using the Given Condition**: Since \( |z + 4| \leq 3 \), we can substitute this into our inequality: \[ |z + 1| \leq |z + 4| + 3 \leq 3 + 3 = 6 \] 5. **Finding the Maximum Value**: Therefore, the greatest value of \( |z + 1| \) is: \[ |z + 1| \leq 6 \] Hence, the greatest value of \( |z + 1| \) is \( 6 \). ### Conclusion: The greatest value of \( |z + 1| \) is \( 6 \).
