A multi-source query presents two documents. Document 1 states that 'Company X prioritizes innovation and invests heavily in R&D, often releasing cutting-edge but expensive products.' Document 2 shows a bar chart depicting Company X's market share in three product categories (A, B, C). Category A has 40% market share, Category B has 25%, and Category C has 10%. What is the most reasonable inference?

A Company X's most expensive products are in Category A.
B Company X's R&D investments have been more successful in Category A.
C Company X has a higher profit margin in Category A.
D Company X's products in Category B are more innovative than in Category A.

✓ Correct Answer: Option B

Document 1 implies innovation leads to market success for Company X. The bar chart shows Category A has the highest market share. Therefore, it's reasonable to infer R&D investments have been most successful in Category A.
