question # 9
multiple choice
what is the name given to software that decodes information from a digital file so that a media player can display the file?
○ plug - in
○ flash player
○ hard drive
○ mp3

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• "plug - in": A plug - in is software that adds specific functionality to a host program, like decoding digital file info for a media player to display it.
• "flash player": It's a media player itself, not just the decoding software.
• "hard drive": It's a storage device, not related to decoding.
• "MP3": It's an audio file format, not decoding software.

So the correct option is the one that represents the decoding software.

Answer:

A. plug - in
