How do you install a package using APT?

Using APT (Advanced Package Tool) to install a package typically requires administrative permissions, which is why prefixing the command with 'sudo' is important. The correct format for the command to install a package is 'sudo apt install [package_name]'.

This command structure indicates that 'apt' is the package management tool being used, 'install' is the action we wish to perform, and '[package_name]' should be replaced with the name of the package you want to install. The use of 'sudo' enables the user to execute the command with elevated privileges, which is often necessary for installing software on a Linux system, as these actions typically affect system files and configurations that require root access.

For example, if you wanted to install a package called 'curl', you would use the command 'sudo apt install curl'. This command accurately conveys the intention to not only use the APT tool for installation but also ensures that the required permissions are obtained to perform the operation successfully.

Other options either lack the necessary permissions or do not correctly specify the command structure required by APT.
