No. An hypothesis is an idea put forward to explain an observation. Often you do the experiment to test the hypothesis. The results of the experiment may help you decide whether to discard your hypothesis or to test it further.

Should the hypothesis be supported or rejected based on the experiment?
That depends on the result of the experiment. The experiment is a way to test a hypothesis, and it's completely fine if the experiment disproves the hypothesis. Ideally, though, the experiment will support the hypothesis.
Making an educated guess on the results of an experiment based on observation and the hypothesis is called making a?
conclusion..........i'm pretty sure
Does the qualitative observations have to be related to what your hypothesis is?
Original Answer:I would tie it back in and show whether it helped to reject/fail to reject your hypothesis.Different Answer:A hypothesis (Informal definition), is basically a question based on anticipated results. The experiment is created to try to prove or disprove that hypothesis. When conducting an experiment, only three results can occur. That is the hypothesis is confirmed, the hypothesis is incorrect, or the results were inconclusive. Of the three possible answer, the third is the most maddening as it could indicate that something is wrong with your experiment.Sometimes the most fascinating discoveries come from observations that are either inconclusive, or disprove a hypothesis.
What was Gillettes hypothesis supported by?
by all of the results he had after the tested his hypothesis
What is a hypothesis variable?
A hypothesis is not a variable...it is something that you think will happen based on reasoning and observations, before doing an experiment.
Is it true that an hypothesis is a decision based on the results of the experiment?
True. but not 100% more like 98%
What should be done after data is collected for an experiment?
The scientist or student scientist should review the results. Conclusions should be drawn based on the results. Then, the hypothesis is reviewed to make sure the results confirm the hypothesis; if not, revise the hypothesis and rerun the experiment.
Making an educated guess on the results of an experiment based on observations and the hypothesis is called making a?
prediction
Is a prediction a statement based on the results of an experiment?
No, I believe that would be a hypothesis. A prediction would be forecasting the unknown without the assistance of the results.
What is a theory based on?
A theory is based on a hypothesis. A hypothesis is an estimated or intelligent guess about the outcome of an experiment. A theory is based on what happens during the experiment.
What is the most basic outcome of an experiment?

What are the steps you use during an experiment?
1. Ask a well-defined question 2. Form a testable hypothesis 3. Design an experiment to test your hypothesis 4. Collect & Analyze data 5. Based on results, draw a conclusion 6. Compare results to others

What steps do take when they find differing explanations based on the same evidence?
Formulate an hypothesis that make sense under one explanation and not the other. Developer experiments to test that hypothesis. Analyse the results of the experiment
