The correct answer is: A

Explanation

\(\begin{array}{c|c} x & (x - \varkappa) & (x - \varkappa)^2 \\ \hline 2 & -5 & 25 \\ \hline 3 & -4 & 16 \\ \hline 8 & 1 & 1 \\ \hline 10 & 3 & 9 \\ \hline 12 & 5 & 25 \\ \hline & & 76
\end{array}\)

S.D = \(\sqrt{\frac{(x - \varkappa)^2}{n}}\)

S.D = \(\sqrt{\frac{76}{5}}\)

S.D = 3.9
