why is hexadecimal used as a beneficial method of data

representation?

• Hexadecimal is primarily used for audio data storage.
• Hexadecimal is less efficient than binary representation.
• Hexadecimal is only used in web design.
• Hexadecimal is compact, human-readable, and aligns with computer architecture.

what is sampling resolution

• Sampling resolution is the number of bits required per sample

• Sampling resolution indicates the frequency range of a signal.
• Sampling resolution is the number of samples taken per second.
• Sampling resolution refers to the duration of a signal.

sampling rate

• The number of samples taken per second from a signal.
• The frequency of a signal in hertz.
• The total duration of a recording.
• The amplitude of the signal at a given time.

why do we use data compression?

• to save storage space, reduce transmission time, and improve data management efficiency.

• To eliminate the need for data backups
• To make data unreadable to unauthorized users
• To increase file size for better quality
