Hypotheses are ideas which are, as yet, unsupported by evidence.
As a hypothesis becomes backed up by mathematical formulae and observational data, it may, if it is sound, become a theory.
All scientific theories began life as hypotheses, it is merely a case of which hypotheses become theories, and which fall down by the wayside after being discredited or having lacked support.

A hypothesis, or group of hypotheses, that is accepted as consistently valid is a theory. Either a hypothesis or a theory can be ultimately disproven. One definition of a theory is an accepted hypothesis.
