- ✓
$\frac{14}{11}$
- B
$\frac{17}{14}$
- C
$\frac{14}{15}$
- D
$\frac{11}{14}$
AnswerCorrect option: A. $\frac{14}{11}$
Let $\text{x}=1.\overline{27}=1.272727.....(\text{i})$
Multiplying equation $(i)$ with $100 [$since there is bar over $2$ & $7, ($two digits$)]$
$100x = 100 × (1.272727...)$
$100x = 127.2727 .......(ii)$
Subtracting $(i)$ from $(ii)$ i.e. $(ii) - (i)$
$100x - x = 127.2727 ... - 1.272727...$
$99x = 126.000$
$\text{x}=\frac{126}{99}$
$\text{x}=\frac{14}{11}$
Thus, $1.\overline{27}=\frac{14}{11}$

Which one of the following statements is true$?$
- A
The sum of two irrational numbers is always an irrational number.
- B
The sum of two irrational numbers is always a rational number.
- ✓
The sum of two irrational numbers may be a rational number or an irrational number.
- D
The sum of two irrational numbers is always an integer.
AnswerCorrect option: C. The sum of two irrational numbers may be a rational number or an irrational number.
If two irrational numbers i.e. $\sqrt{2},\sqrt{5},2+\sqrt{3},2-\sqrt{3}$ etc. are added it is not necessary that sum comes out to be an irrational number always, or a rational nnumber always, or a rational number always...
Since $\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{5}=$ an irrational number
$2+\sqrt{\not\text{3}}+2-\sqrt{\not\text{3}}=4=$ a rational number
So we see that $\sqrt{2}$ and $\sqrt{5}$ are irrational numbers, and their sum is also irrational.
But $2+\sqrt{3}$ and $2-\sqrt{3}$ are also irrational numbers, and their sum is rational number $'4'.$
So sum of two irrational numbers can be either an irrational number or a rational number depending which numbers are being added.
So options $(a)$ and $(b)$ are totally wrong, because they are not 'always' true.
Option $(c)$ is correcrt because sum can be either irrational or rational and option $(c)$ is verifying this statement.
Option $(d) -$ again it is not always true, if we add two irrational numbers like $2+\sqrt{3}$ and $2-\sqrt{3}.$
Sum is an integer $= 4,$ but if we add $\sqrt{3}$ and $\sqrt{3},$ sum is $2\sqrt{3}$ which is not an integer but again an irrational number.
So option $(d)$ is also incorrect.
Hence, correct option is $(c).$

- A
$\sqrt{5}$
- B
$\sqrt{2}$
- C
$\sqrt[3]{2}$

$\big(\sqrt[4]{2}\big)^2=\Big(2^{\frac{1}{4}}\Big)^2=2^{\frac{1}{4}\times2}=2^{\frac{1}{2}}=\sqrt{2},$ 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 $(d).$

- B
$\frac{1}{2}$ and $\frac{2}{1}$
- ✓
$\frac{5}{6}$ and $\frac{7}{6}$
- D
$\frac{2}{3}$ and $\frac{4}{3}$
AnswerCorrect 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 $(c).$

AnswerWe have to find the value of x provided $\frac{3^{5\text{x}}\times81^2\times6561}{3^{2\text{x}}}=3^7$
So,
$\frac{3^{5\text{x}}\times81^2\times6561}{3^{2\text{x}}}=3^7$
By using law of rational exponents we get
$3^{5\text{x}+8+8-2\text{x}}=3^7$
By equating exponents we get
$5\text{x}+88-2\text{x}=7$
$3\text{x}+16=7$
$3\text{x}=7-16$
$3\text{x}=-9$
$\text{x}=\frac{-9}{3}$

- ✓
$2$
- B
$\frac{1}{4}$
- C
$9$
- D
$\frac{1}{8}$
AnswerGiven: $\frac{2^{\text{m}+\text{n}}}{2^{\text{n}-\text{m}}}=16,\ \frac{3^\text{p}}{2^\text{n}}=81$ and $\text{a}=2^{\frac{1}{10}}$
To find: $\frac{\text{a}^{2{\text{m}+\text{n}-\text{p}}}}{(\text{a}^{\text{m}-2\text{n}+2\text{p}})^{-1}}$
Find: $\frac{2^{\text{m}+\text{n}}}{2^{\text{n}-\text{m}}}=16$
By using rational components $\frac{\text{a}^\text{m}}{\text{a}^\text{n}}=\text{a}^{\text{m}-\text{n}}$ We get
$2^{\text{m}+\text{n}-\text{n}+\text{m}}=16$
$2^{2\text{m}}=2^4$
By equating rational exponents we get
$2\text{m}=4$
$\text{m}=\frac{4}{2}$
$\text{m}=2$
Now, $\frac{\text{a}^{2\text{m}+\text{n}-\text{p}}}{(\text{a}^{\text{m}-2\text{n}+2\text{p}})}=(\text{a}^{2\text{m}+\text{n}-\text{p}}).(\text{a}^{\text{m}-2\text{n}+2\text{p})}$ we get
$=\text{a}^{2\text{mn}+\text{n}+\text{p}+\text{m}-2\text{n}+2\text{p}}$
$=\text{a}^{3\text{m}-\text{n}+\text{p}}$
Now putting value of $\text{a}=2^\frac{1}{10}$ we get,
$=2^{\frac{3\text{m}-\text{n}+\text{p}}{10}}$
$=2^{\frac{6-\text{n}+\text{p}}{10}}$
Also, $\frac{3^\text{p}}{3^\text{n}}=81$
$3^{\text{p}-\text{n}}=3^4$
On comparing $LHS$ and $RHS$ we get, $p - n = 4.$
Now,
$\frac{\text{a}^{2{\text{m}+\text{n}-\text{p}}}}{(\text{a}^{\text{m}-2\text{n}+2\text{p}})^{-1}}=\text{a}^{3\text{m}-\text{n}+\text{p}}$
$=2^{\frac{6+(\text{p}-\text{n})}{10}}$
$=2^{\frac{6+4}{10}}$
$=2^{\frac{10}{10}}=2^1$
$=2$
So, option $(a)$ is the correct answer.

$\frac{14}{9}$
- ✓
$\frac{14}{11}$
- C
$\frac{14}{13}$
- D
$\frac{14}{15}$
AnswerCorrect option: B. $\frac{14}{11}$
Let $\text{x}=1.\overline{27}=1.272727...(1)$
Now, $100\text{x}=127.272727=127.\overline{27}...(2)$
Subtracting equation $(1)$ from $(2),$ we get
$99\text{x}=126$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{126}{99}=\frac{14}{11}$
Hence, option $(b)$ is correct.

An irrational number between $s$ and $6$ is:
- ✓
$\sqrt{5\times6}$
- B
$\sqrt{5+6}$
- C
$\sqrt{5-6}$
- D
AnswerCorrect option: A. $\sqrt{5\times6}$
We know that, If $a$ and $b$ are two distinct positive rational numbers such that ab is not a perfect square of a rational number, Then $\sqrt{\text{ab}}$ is an irrational number lying between $a$ and $b,$
Here also we have $5$ and $6$ two distinct rational numbers and $5 × 6 = 30$ is not a perfect square,
So irrational number betweens and $6 =\sqrt{5\times6}$

$(5+\sqrt{8})+(3-\sqrt{2})(\sqrt{2}-6)$ is:
Answer$(5+\sqrt{8})+(3-\sqrt{2})(\sqrt{2}-6)$
$=(5+2\sqrt{2})+(3\sqrt{2}-18-2+6\sqrt{2})$
$=(5+2\sqrt{2})+(9\sqrt{2}-20)$
$=11\sqrt{2}-15$
And we know that the value of $11\sqrt{2}$ is greater than $15$ so it's value will be positive,
And also sum or differences of rational and irrational is irrational.
