Final answer:

The point with the highest error term is Point D, with an error value of 12, which represents the largest deviation among the given options.

The correct option is d.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out which point has the highest error term, we look at the provided error values for each point. The error term is the difference between the observed value and the true value or the predicted value in a dataset. It reflects the magnitude of the discrepancy.

Comparing the provided options:

  • Point A, Error = 5
  • Point B, Error = 10
  • Point C, Error = 8
  • Point D, Error = 12

The highest error term is for Point D with an error value of 12. This error value represents the largest deviation among the provided options.

The correct option is d.
