Which of the following statements is true regarding how you pay for Amazon EC2 instances?
(Choose two.)
Payment does not vary based on the instance AMI’s operating system.
You can pay per hour or per second, depending on the instance AMI’s operating system.
You pay for compute capacity by the day; hours are billed in proportion.
You can pay per hour or per second, depending on the instance type.
Explanations:
Payment does vary based on the instance AMI’s operating system, as different operating systems (like Windows vs. Linux) can have different pricing structures.
You can pay per hour or per second for EC2 instances, but this depends on the instance type and operating system. Instances with certain OS may have per-second billing.
You do not pay for compute capacity by the day; rather, you are charged based on the duration of usage, either per hour or per second, depending on the instance type.
You can pay per hour or per second depending on the instance type, as some instance types support per-second billing, especially for Linux-based instances.
I opine that the answer is:
You can pay per hour or per second, depending on the instance AMI’s operating system.
