Here are the correct descriptions for each number:
a) 89 is a **whole** decimal.
b) \( \sqrt{49} \) is a **terminating** decimal (since \( \sqrt{49} = 7 \), which is a whole number).
c) -0.071625... is a **non-terminating** decimal (it is non-repeating, but since it is non-terminating, you can simply say "non-terminating" for the description).
d) 14 is a **whole** decimal (and also a counting number).
e) -0.030303... is a **repeating** decimal (the digits "03" repeat indefinitely).
So the filled in blanks would be:
a) whole
b) terminating
c) non-terminating
d) whole
e) repeating
