Use the standard deviation to compare the variability of the datasets. Round to the nearest hundredths.

Dataset A: 11, 7, 12, 8, 9, 5

Dataset B: 10, 8, 10, 8, 8, 4

The standard deviation of Dataset A is 2.58. The standard deviation of Dataset B is 2.19. The standard deviation of Dataset A is larger than that of Dataset B, so Dataset A has more variability.

The standard deviation of Dataset A is 2.58. The standard deviation of Dataset B is 2.58. Dataset A and Dataset B have the same standard deviation, so the variability is the same for both datasets.

The standard deviation of Dataset A is 2.19. The standard deviation of Dataset B is 2.58. The standard deviation of Dataset B is larger than that of Dataset A, so Dataset B has more variability.

The correct choice is the first one.

Standard deviations: A ≈ 2.58, B ≈ 2.19. Since 2.58 > 2.19, Dataset A has more variability.
