I am new to x-pack and I would like to know whether x-pack is an open source or paid. I was not able to get any information from the elastic website regarding this. Thanks in advance.

Short answer is that X-Pack has been open-sourced but not all features are free to use. You need a paid subscription to use all features after a 30-day trial.
I'll quote from the official FAQ rather than rehashing.
If the code of X-Pack is open, does that mean it's all free?
No. Many features in X-Pack are free, such as monitoring, tile maps, Grok Debugger, and Search Profiler. Some features in X-Pack are paid, and require a license that comes with a Gold or Platinum subscription.
