Answer: Lin is the most consistent and I would want to have them on my team.
Why is this? Because their dots are more clustered together compared to the other distributions. Elena may have made the most shots (9) at one point, but her data set is very spread out and more unpredictable. The more spread out a data set is, the higher the variance and standard deviation. The range is also affected by how spread out the data set is since
range = max - min
So in a rough sense, the range can be used to estimate the variance and standard deviation. Though more accurate formulas are usually the better way to go.
