Rebeka Thelisme · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : B, Explanation :  Since all members of the staff participated in training designed to teach them the new system, it can be assumed that they all have the ability to use the new technology. However, since Jerry continues to make excessive numbers of errors, it is likely that his performance problem is due to a combination of ability and motivation. It is possible that he may lack the motivation to fully engage with the new system or has not fully grasped the new technology. Therefore, option B is the best choice.
