• C)the result of dividing the standard deviation of an independent variable by the difference between that independent variable value and its mean.
• D)the result of dividing the difference between each independent variable value and its mean by the standard deviation of that independent variable.
• E)the result of subtracting the difference between each independent variable value and its mean by the standard deviation of that independent variable.
