A. Jpeg

Explanation

The correct answer is "jpeg" because JPEG is a commonly used compressed bitmap format for images on the world-wide-web.

To turn a shape upside down in a drawing or painting program you select the shape then use
- Flip vertically
- Undo
- Flip horizontally
Correct Answer

A. Flip vertically

Explanation

In a drawing or painting program, to turn a shape upside down, you would select the shape and then use the "flip vertically" option. This action will mirror the shape along a horizontal axis, effectively turning it upside down. The "undo" option is not relevant to flipping the shape, as it is used to reverse the previous action. The "flip horizontally" option would mirror the shape along a vertical axis, which would not achieve the desired upside-down effect.

- An error in the program

Correct Answer

A. A hole in the area

Explanation

If the color spills out of the area you are filling, it indicates that there is a hole in the area. This means that there is an open space or gap in the boundary of the area, allowing the color to leak out. This could be due to a mistake or oversight in the design or creation of the area, resulting in an incomplete boundary.

This makes it easier to move, resize, or apply changes to the entire group of shapes as a whole, rather than individually selecting and modifying each shape separately.

The color of the printing is determined by the color attribute or the default color settings of the document or device.
