Let the number \(\alpha\) be given by the decimal:
a) \(0.101001000100001000001 \dots\);
b) \(0.123456789101112131415 \dots\).
Will this number be rational?
For what natural numbers \(a\) and \(b\) is the number \(\log_{a} b\) rational?
Prove that for \(x \ne \pi n\) (\(n\) is an integer) \(\sin x\) and \(\cos x\) are rational if and only if the number \(\tan x/2\) is rational.
Derive from the theorem in question 61013 that \(\sqrt{17}\) is an irrational number.
The numbers \(x\), \(y\) and \(z\) are such that all three numbers \(x + yz\), \(y + zx\) and \(z + xy\) are rational, and \(x^2 + y^2 = 1\). Prove that the number \(xyz^2\) is also rational.
It is known that \(a > 1\). Is it always true that \(\lfloor \sqrt{\lfloor \sqrt{a}\rfloor }\rfloor = \lfloor \sqrt{4}{a}\rfloor\)?
A firm recorded its expenses in pounds for 100 items, creating a list of 100 numbers (with each number having no more than two decimal places). Each accountant took a copy of the list and found an approximate amount of expenses, acting as follows. At first, he arbitrarily chose two numbers from the list, added them, discarded the sum after the decimal point (if there was anything) and recorded the result instead of the selected two numbers. With the resulting list of 99 numbers, he did the same, and so on, until there was one whole number left in the list. It turned out that in the end all the accountants ended up with different results. What is the largest number of accountants that could work in the company?
The number \(x\) is such that both the sums \(S = \sin 64x + \sin 65x\) and \(C = \cos 64x + \cos 65x\) are rational numbers.
Prove that in both of these sums, both terms are rational.
The numbers \(\lfloor a\rfloor, \lfloor 2a\rfloor, \dots , \lfloor Na\rfloor\) are all different, and the numbers \(\lfloor 1/a\rfloor, \lfloor 2/a\rfloor,\dots , \lfloor M/a\rfloor\) are also all different. Find all such \(a\).
Find the number of solutions in natural numbers of the equation \(\lfloor x / 10\rfloor = \lfloor x / 11\rfloor + 1\).
