[amp_mcq option1=”A, B and C” option2=”C, B and A” option3=”B, A and C” option4=”C, A and B” correct=”option3″]<\/p>\n

The correct answer is: C. B, A and C<\/p>\n

The consistency of a player is measured by the standard deviation of their scores. A lower standard deviation indicates that the player’s scores are more consistent, while a higher standard deviation indicates that the player’s scores are more variable.<\/p>\n

In this case, player B has the lowest standard deviation, followed by player A and then player C. This means that player B’s scores are the most consistent, followed by player A and then player C. Therefore, the players in descending order of consistency are:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. B<\/li>\n
  2. A<\/li>\n
  3. C<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Here is a table showing the scores of each player and their standard deviation:<\/p>\n

    Player | Average score | Standard deviation
    \n——- | ——– | ——–
    \nA | 40 | 5
    \nB | 75 | 10
    \nC | 90 | 18<\/p>\n

    As you can see, player B has the lowest standard deviation, followed by player A and then player C. This means that player B’s scores are the most consistent, followed by player A and then player C.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
