Which best describes the difference between an observation and an inference?
question 1 options:

you can record an observation; an inference is an idea.

you make an inference before you make observations.

an observation is a conclusion; an inference is a hypothesis.

an observation is based on evidence, an inference is not.

You can record an observation; an inference is an idea.

Explanation:

Observation is the act of observing, it means having your attention directed to something specific, with the intention of later judging, analyzing or investigating a certain thing or someone. An observation can be recorded, filmed, photographed and recorded in any way that helps you to reason about what you observed. From the observation you can make an inference.

Inference is the action and the effect of inferring (deducing something, drawing a conclusion from something else, leading to a result). Inference arises from an observation and mental evaluation between different expressions that, when related as abstractions, allow us to trace a logical implication. In crazy words, inference is an idea.

the answer is; comparing the frequency of collisions with and without the device

this makes the anti-collision system an independent variable and the collisions a dependent variable. if there are fewer collisions with an anti-collision system that without, then it can be stated that the system is a success. essentially, collisions under an anti-collision system are compared with the frequency of collisions by cars with the human drivers.
