The set of irrational numbers is NOT denoted by Q.Q denotes the set of rational numbers. The set of irrational numbers is not denoted by any particular letter but by R - Q where R is the set of real numbers.
Irrational numbers may be denoted by Q' since they are the complement of Q in R, the set of Real numbers.

There are no real reason why it is denoted by z, but that the real number axis is denoted by x, imaginary number is denoted by y, the real part of a complex number is denoted by a, the imaginary part of a complex number is denoted by b, so there is z left.

A decimal expansion means to write out the base 10 digits of a number. Because irrational numbers do not have a closed form, the decimal expansion will always be an approximation. Consider the irrational number pi, which has the following decimal expansion: 3.14159265... Of course there are more digits to pi than that, which is denoted by the "...". It is sadly impossible to list ALL of the digits of an irrational numbers, since if there were a finite number of digits, you could express it as a fraction, which would not be irrational.

Let R + S = T, and suppose that T is a rational number.The set of rational number is a group.This implies that since R is rational, -R is rational [invertibility].Then, since T and -R are rational, T - R must be rational [closure].But T - R = S which implies that S is rational.That contradicts the fact that y is an irrational number. The contradiction implies that the assumption [that T is rational] is incorrect.Thus, the sum of a rational number R and an irrational number S cannot be rational.
An irrational number.
No. The sum of an irrational number and any other [real] number is irrational.
The sum of a rational and irrational number must be an irrational number.
Irrational numbers are denoted by the symbol "s" to distinguish them from rational numbers, which can be expressed as fractions. Irrational numbers cannot be expressed as fractions and have non-repeating, non-terminating decimal representations. The symbol "s" serves as a placeholder to represent these numbers in mathematical equations and calculations.
No, 3.56 is not an irrational number. 3.56 is rational.
rational * irrational = irrational.
