CPU does not support KVM, but I want to run android emulator in Ubuntu 18.04 on HP Computer

I have set up my react Native environment on an HP UEFI Computer running Ubuntu 18.04.
When I try to run an emulator using AVD, I get the following error:

Starting emulator for AVD 'AVD_for_Nexus_10_by_Google' emulator:
ERROR: x86_64 emulation currently requires hardware acceleration!
Please ensure KVM is properly installed and usable.
CPU acceleration status: KVM requires a CPU that supports vmx or svm

I have tried to install kVM as shown online, and when I run

sudo /usr/sbin/kvm-ok

I get the error

INFO: Your CPU does not support KVM extensions KVM acceleration can NOT be used

When I run the command

egrep -c '(vmx|svm)'

I get the output

0

My computer is an HP 250 Laptop . Intel Pentium Any help or directions on this issue, especially how to get my Emulator running, will be greatly appreciated.
