Answer 1

Here are the correct descriptions for each number:

1. 8/9:

   • Response area: rational
   • Response area decimal: repeating (because 8/9 = 0.888...)

2. 49 (the square root of 49 is 7):

   • Response area: rational
   • Response area decimal: terminating (because 7 is a whole number)

3. -0.071625:

   • Response area: rational
   • Response area decimal: terminating (it has a finite number of decimal places)

4. 1/4:

   • Response area: rational
   • Response area decimal: terminating (because 1/4 = 0.25)

5. -0.030303:

   • Response area: rational
   • Response area decimal: repeating (because it's -0.030303... which can be written as -0.03 repeating)

So the complete descriptions would be:

1. 8/9 is rational and a repeating decimal.
2. 49 (square root of 49) is rational and a terminating decimal.
3. -0.071625 is rational and a terminating decimal.
4. 1/4 is rational and a terminating decimal.
5. -0.030303 is rational and a repeating decimal.
