Question

Jasmine will be giving a presentation on becoming a successful inventor. Read the steps she has planned for her presentation. 1. Identify a simple, everyday problem. 2. Think of a way to solve the problem. 3. Create a tool that does the job of solving the problem. 4. Market and sell the tool to people with the same problem. Which statement best evaluates Jasmine's method?

Answer 1

The statement that best evaluates Jasmine's method is:

Step 4. Market and sell the tool to people with the same problem.

Alternative 3 is more specifically about "inventing", "creating" something. However, how "successful" can one be if one only creates something, without nobody else knowing about it? Therefore, in order to be not only an inventor, but a successful one, one must not only invent a tool that does the job of solving a certain problem, but also market and sell it. Since Jasmine will be giving a presentation about it, the way to best evaluate her method is to see not only what she does, but how she does it, that is, her strategies to achieve success.
