The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the following numbers is rational, we will analyze each number one by one. 1. **First Number: \(\sqrt{\frac{9}{27}}\)** Step 1: Simplify the fraction \(\frac{9}{27}\). \[ \frac{9}{27} = \frac{1}{3} \] Step 2: Take the square root of \(\frac{1}{3}\). \[ \sqrt{\frac{1}{3}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \] Since \(\sqrt{3}\) is an irrational number, \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\) is also irrational. **Conclusion**: The first number is irrational. 2. **Second Number: \(\sqrt{196}\)** Step 1: Calculate the square root of 196. \[ \sqrt{196} = 14 \] Since 14 is a whole number, it is a rational number. **Conclusion**: The second number is rational. 3. **Third Number: \(1 + \sqrt{5} + 4 + \sqrt{5}\)** Step 1: Combine like terms. \[ 1 + 4 + \sqrt{5} + \sqrt{5} = 5 + 2\sqrt{5} \] Since \(\sqrt{5}\) is irrational, \(2\sqrt{5}\) is also irrational, and thus \(5 + 2\sqrt{5}\) is irrational. **Conclusion**: The third number is irrational. 4. **Fourth Number: \(1.010010001...\)** Step 1: Analyze the decimal. This number is non-terminating and non-repeating. **Conclusion**: The fourth number is irrational. ### Final Summary: - The first number is irrational. - The second number is rational. - The third number is irrational. - The fourth number is irrational.
