Help please! how did john d. rockefeller influence prices during the second industrial revolution?

he increased competition in the oil industry, which lowered prices.

he received a patent on refining oil from the government, so he was able to raise prices.

he owned all the refineries, so he charged whatever prices he wanted.

he advanced oil technology, which allowed him to decrease prices.
