5. What internet browser(s) is included with your distribution?
The internet browser included with my distribution is Mozilla Firefox.
6. Name 3 other applications included with the distribution and their purpose.
One of the applications is called LibreOffice Calc, which is a spreadsheet to add charts

the included distribution is called PiTiVi video editor, which allows the user to add their
