Correct Answer:
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Box 1: A source control system
A source control system, also called a version control system, allows developers to collaborate on code and track changes. Source control is an essential tool for multi-developer projects.
Box 2: A hosted service
To build and deploy Xcode apps or Xamarin.iOS projects, you’ll need at least one macOS agent. If your pipelines are in Azure Pipelines and a Microsoft-hosted agent meets your needs, you can skip setting up a self-hosted macOS agent.
Scenario: The investment planning applications suite will include one multi-tier web application and two iOS mobile applications. One mobile application will be used by employees; the other will be used by customers.

For both selections, the correct answer is hosted service.
Case requirement: Litware has started an internal cloud transformation process and plans to use cloud-based services whenever suitable.
The build agent can’t be hosted in the source control system 🙂
