because they want to find out the truth
They never guess, but they do make inferences.

scientists know the mass and the volume of earth how could this information help them make inferences about thr kind of matter that makes up the earth interior
Theory: an explanation of an event that has been supported by consistent, repeated experimental results and has therefore been accepted by most scientists. Model: A verbal, mathematical, or visual representation of a scientific structure or process, which allows scientists to construct and test inferences and theories.
making inferences based on data from seismic waves.
To test hypotheses, scientists create experiments.
Lots of different scientists test the same things to compare different conclusions.
Yes, scientists should use inferences as they are essential for interpreting data and drawing conclusions where direct evidence may be lacking. Inferences allow researchers to develop hypotheses, make predictions, and build theoretical frameworks based on observed patterns. However, it is crucial that these inferences are grounded in empirical evidence and subjected to rigorous testing to ensure their validity. Thus, while inferences can be valuable, they should complement rather than replace direct observations.

Scientists test hypothesis by setting up an experiment. They choose a independent and a dependent variable and test the experiment.
if your referring to the scientific method, scientists test the dependent variable
early scientists were not to test their theroies
