Answer 1

False.................

Answer 2

False, Virtual Machines are not costlier as compared to the actual machines.

Explanation:

• No, virtual machines are not expensive as compared to real machines because real machines require hardware that is costlier than virtual machines.
• Virtual machines are generally considered as software/programs that need to be created only once and then can be easily reproduced whereas the production of real machines requires resources like labour, power etc. Necessity leads to higher costs.
• Virtual machines do not require physical space or a large space for keeping it which reduce the cost of storage too as compared to the actual physical machines.
