Explanation: A repeating decimal continues to go with the same number pattern. The terminating decimal stops the number pattern and does not keep repeating. The decimal for 5/9 is 0.5555... and it will keep repeating the number five.
The horizontal axis in the coordinate plane is called the x-axis. The vertical axis is called the y-axis. The point at which the two axes intersect is called the origin. The origin is at 0 on the x-axis and 0 on the y-axis.
