they make a decision, they hire a team of scientists to investigate the impact of building this bridge. Which statement best
describes why this study is important?
The project will stimulate the town's economy by providing many employment opportunities for the town's residents.

There will be many people opposed to the bridge project, and the study will provide results that will persuade them to
change their minds.

The study will provide the potential risks and benefits of the project and help the town make an informed decision.

If there is a problem after the bridge is built, the town can use the study to impose a fine against the scientists who
conducted the study.
