  • B.Established fact
  • C.Assumed relationship between variables
  • D.Opinion

Answer: C

A hypothesis is an assumed relationship between variables.

A hypothesis is a tentative statement, framed before the research, of a relationship between two or more variables, for example that higher training leads to better performance. It is stated so that it can be tested against data and either supported or rejected.

It is not a value judgement or an opinion, since it must be testable by evidence, and it is not an established fact, since it has yet to be tested; a hypothesis that survives repeated testing may become part of a theory.
