Answer:

A. It can be patented as it is useful, novel, and not obvious.

Explanation:

According to the United States law for patenting, “a patent is granted when the product is new, useful, and non-obvious”. The product is new since no one has created that type of tires, it is useful because it protects people from possible accidents, and it is non-obvious because it is sufficiently inventive. The key here is that Angela created and designed a new tire that could be revolutionary in the automobile company. It would not be eligible for copyright since copyright only protects expressions of ideas. In the other hand, patents protects new inventions.

Which statement about an opinion is false?
pickupchik [31]
Actually, I would argue that to some extend all of them are true:

An opinion is a personal view or attitude.
-this is definitely true, it's basically a definition of an opinion

An opinion is often indicated by the use of adjectives.
-this is true! for example "my teacher is nice"

An opinion is often used as evidence in a news article.
-this is the weakest statement (but I think that it's still not false). I would however choose this as the right answer: opinion is not an evidence for anything except this opinion ( so it's valid for example for the news of "the president thinks that" if the opinion is that of the president.

An opinion has the potential to promote bias. - this is true!
