Ashlynn Ryan · Answer 1

The answer is C) The hypothesis of the company is verified

Ryan Brennan · Answer 2

My answer will be option D (The hypothesis was neither verified or refuted) because the results of the two tests carried out with standard tires and with the new WetMax tires are not reported. More information is missing to analyze the results and draw conclusions.
