4. Referring to the following image, answer the questions below. [(a) 4 marks, (b) 10 marks]

(a) What types of this image? Explain. _Bitmap, enlarged bitmap image shows jagged edges and look blurry._
(b) Suppose that this image has 163 x 134 pixels and 8-bit colour depth. Calculate the file size of the image. Express
the answer in KB and correct to 2 decimal places.

File size of the image

= 163 x 134 x 8 bit(b)

= 174736 bit (b)

= 21842 byte

= 21.33 KB
