You want thisscanned piece to appear as 6-inch6-inch in thefinal collage that will be printed outat 300 ppi.If you scan the picture at a resolution insufficient to print it at a size of 6-inch6-inch at 300 ppi, you willhave to scale up the scanned image, which will deterioratethe image quality and make it look pixelated.What is the minimal scanning resolution (dpi) you should use to scan this 2-inch2-inch area so that you donot have to resize the image to meet the printing requirement?Show your calculations.(Tip: First calculate the pixel dimensions of that piece of image needed in the finalcollage.)12.What kind of images are GIF files most appropriate for?A. imageswith big areas of solid colorsB. continuous-tone photographsC. images with lots of gradients13.What kind of images are JPEG files most appropriate for?A. images with big areas of solid colorsB. continuous-tone photographsC. images with lots of gradients14.Shown in Figure 3.42is a grayscale image and its histogram:Figure 3.42(a) A grayscale image. (b) The image’s histogram.i. Match each of the bars in the histogram to the color it represents. (Draw arrows linking each bar and thecolor in the grayscale image in Figure 3.42.)ii. To maximize the contrast and tonal range of this image, what changes of the sliders should be made? Showthe new positions of the sliders in the histogram provided in Figure 3.42.iii. Figure 3.42 shows four different adjustments of the sliders made in the grayscale image’s histogram. Foreach of the four image outlines in Figure 3.42 , label the areas with the resulting grays. Specify whether it isblack, white, or gray. If it is gray, estimate an RGB value for that gray.
