Answer:

B. stating a hypothesis and using that hypothesis to make a testable prediction

Explanation:

Your hypothesis is that the cars battery is dead, and that is why the car isn´t starting, so you are stating a hypothesis, and as you are suggesting to jump-start the car from a good battery which is usually from another car, you are enabling a trstable prediction, so the correct option would be B.

The assumption made about the battery being dead and further putting a good battery to test depicts a scenario whereby an hypothesis was put forward and tested.

  • Hypothesis may be described as assertions or assumptions made about a certain phenomenon before being tested or experimented.

  • Theories on the other refers to elaborate explanation made on an already established principle or phenomenon.

  • We only have one hypothesis in the scenario, which is the assumption that battery was the cause of the car malfunction.

Therefore, the scenario best describes an hypothesis put forward to test if the battery was the probable cause of the car refusing to start. The correct option is C.
