The simplest for of $0.\overline{32}$ is :
  • A
    $\frac{16}{45}$
  • B
    $\frac{32}{99}$
  • $\frac{29}{90}$
  • D
    None of these.
Answer
Correct option: C.
$\frac{29}{90}$
Let $\text{x}=0.\overline{32}$
Then, $\text{x}=0.3222 \ ...(\text{i})$
$\therefore10\text{x}=3.222 \ ...(\text{ii})$
and $100\text{x}=32.222 \ ...(\text{iii})$
On subtracting $(ii)$ from $(iii)$, we get
$90\text{x}=29$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{29}{90}$
Hence, the correct option is $(c).$

If $\Big(\frac{2}{3}\Big)^{\text{x}}\Big(\frac{3}{2}\Big)^\text{2x}=\frac{81}{16}$ then $x =$ ?
  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $3$
  • $4$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$4$
$\Big(\frac{2}{3}\Big)^{\text{x}}\Big(\frac{3}{2}\Big)^\text{2x}=\frac{81}{16}$
$\Rightarrow\Big(\frac{3}{2}\Big)^{-\text{x}}\Big(\frac{3}{2}\Big)^\text{2x}=\frac{3^4}{2^4}$
$\Rightarrow\Big(\frac{3}{2}\Big)^{-\text{x}+2\text{x}}=\Big(\frac{3}{2}\Big)^4$
$\Rightarrow\Big(\frac{3}{2}\Big)^{\text{x}}=\Big(\frac{3}{2}\Big)^4$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=4$
Hence, the correct option is $(d).$

Which of the following is a true statment?
  • A
    $\pi$ and $\frac{22}{7}$ are both rationals.
  • B
    $\pi$ and $\frac{22}{7}$ are both irrationals
  • C
    $\pi$ is rational and $\frac{22}{7}$ is irrational.
  • $\pi$ is irrational and $\frac{22}{7}$ is rational.
Answer
Correct option: D.
$\pi$ is irrational and $\frac{22}{7}$ is rational.
A number which can neither be expressed as a terminating decimal nor as a repeating decimal is called an irrational number.
So, $\pi=3.141592 ... $ is irrational.
The numbers of the form $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}},$ where $p$ and $q$ are integers and $\text{q}\neq0,$ are known as rational numbers.

There is a number $x$ such that $x^2$ is irrational but $x^4$ is rational. Then, $x$ can be:
  • A
    $\sqrt{5}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{2}$
  • C
    $\sqrt[3]{2}$
  • $\sqrt[4]{2}$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$\sqrt[4]{2}$
$\big(\sqrt[4]{2}\big)^2=\Big(2^{\frac{1}{4}}\Big)^2=2^{\frac{1}{4}\times2}=2^{\frac{1}{2}}=\sqrt{2},$ which is irrational.
$\big(\sqrt[4]{2}\big)^2=\Big(2^{\frac{1}{4}}\Big)^2=2^{\frac{1}{4}\times4}=2^1=2,$ which is rational.
Hence, the correct option is $(d).$

Two rational numbers between $\frac{2}{3}$ and $\frac{5}{3}$ are:
  • A
    $\frac{1}{6}$ and $\frac{2}{6}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{2}$ and $\frac{2}{1}$
  • $\frac{5}{6}$ and $\frac{7}{6}$
  • D
    $\frac{2}{3}$ and $\frac{4}{3}$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$\frac{5}{6}$ and $\frac{7}{6}$
We have $, \frac{2}{3}=\frac{2\times2}{3\times2}=\frac{4}{6}$ and $\frac{5}{3}=\frac{5\times2}{3\times2}=\frac{10}{6}$
And, $\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1\times3}{2\times3}=\frac{3}{6}$ and $\frac{2}{1}=\frac{2\times6}{1\times6}=\frac{12}{6}$
Also, $\frac{2}{3}=\frac{2\times2}{3\times2}=\frac{4}{6}$ and $\frac{4}{3}=\frac{4\times2}{3\times2}=\frac{8}{6}$
Since, $\frac{1}{6}<\frac{2}{6}<\frac{3}{6}\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big)<\frac{4}{6}\Big(=\frac{2}{3}\Big)<\frac{5}{6}<\frac{7}{6}$
$<\frac{8}{6}\Big(=\frac{4}{3}\Big)<\frac{10}{6}\Big(=\frac{5}{3}\Big)<\frac{12}{6}\Big(=\frac{2}{1}\Big)$
So, the two rational numbers between $\frac{2}{3}$ and $\frac{5}{3}$ are $\frac{5}{6}$ and $\frac{7}{6}.$
Hence, the correct opion is $(c)$.

A rational number between $-3$ and $3$ is:
  • $0$
  • B
    $-4.3$
  • C
    $-3.4$
  • D
    $1.101100110001 ... $
Answer
Correct option: A.
$0$
Since $, -4.3 < -3.4 < -3 < 0 < 1.101100110001 ... < 3$
But $1.101100110001 ... $ is an irrational number
So, the rational number between $-3$ and $3$ is $0$.
Hence, the correct option is $(a)$.

Which of the following is a rational number?
  • A
    $\sqrt{2}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{23}$
  • $\sqrt{225}$
  • D
    $0.1010010001 ... $
Answer
Correct option: C.
$\sqrt{225}$
The numbers of the form $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}},$ where $p$ and $q$ are integers and $\text{q}\neq0,$ are known as rational numbers.
$\sqrt{2},$
$\sqrt{23}$ and $0.1010010001 ... $ are irrational numbers, since they cannot be expressed in the form $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}.$
$\sqrt{225}=15=\frac{15}{1}$ is a rational number.
Hence, the correct opion is $(c)$.

The decimal representation of a rational number is:
  • A
    always terminating.
  • either terminating or repeating.
  • C
    either terminating or non $-$ repeating.
  • D
    neither terminating nor repeating.
Answer
Correct option: B.
either terminating or repeating.
The numbers of the form $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}},$ where $p$ and $q$ are integers and $\text{q}\neq0,$ are known as rational numbers.
Decimal representation of a rational number is either terminating or a repeating decimal,
Since every decimal of this form can be expressed in the form $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}.$
Hence, the correct opion is $(b)$.

$\big(3-2\sqrt{2}\big)$
$\frac{1}{\big(3+2\sqrt{2}\big)}$
$=\frac{1}{3+2\sqrt{2}}\times\frac{3-2\sqrt{2}}{3-2\sqrt{2}}$
$=\frac{3-2\sqrt{2}}{3^2-\big(2\sqrt{2}\big)^2}$
$=\frac{3-2\sqrt{2}}{9-8}$
$=\big(3-2\sqrt{2}\big)$
Hence, the correct option is $(c)$.

  • C
    always an integer.
  • sometimes rational and sometimes irrational.
Answer
Correct option: D.
sometimes rational and sometimes irrational.
Consider, the irrational number, $\sqrt{3}.$
Product $=\sqrt{3}\times\sqrt{3}=3,$ which is a rational number.
Consider two irrational numbers, $\sqrt{2}$ and $\sqrt{3}.$
Product $=\sqrt{2}\times\sqrt{3}=\sqrt{6},$ which is an irrational number.
Hence, the product of two irrational numbers are sometimes rational and sometimes irrational.

If $\text{x}=\big(7+4\sqrt{3}\big)$ then $\Big(\text{x}+\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)=?$
  • A
    $8\sqrt{3}$
  • $14$
  • C
    $49$
  • D
    $48$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$14$
$\text{x}=\big(7+4\sqrt{3}\big)$
$\therefore\frac{1}{\text{x}}=\frac{1}{\big(7+4\sqrt{3}\big)}$
$=\frac{1}{\big(7+4\sqrt{3}\big)}\times\frac{\big(7-4\sqrt{3}\big)}{\big(7-4\sqrt{3}\big)}$
$=\frac{\big(7-4\sqrt{3}\big)}{7^2-\big(4\sqrt{3}\big)^2}$
$=\frac{7-4\sqrt{3}}{49-48}$
$=7-4\sqrt{3}$
$\therefore\Big(\text{x}+\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)$
$=\big(7+4\sqrt{3}\big)+\big(7-4\sqrt{3}\big)=14$
Hence, the correct option is $(b)$.
