Step-by-step explanation:

The mean monthly rent of students at Oxnard University is $780 with a standard deviation of $208.

(a) John’s rent is $1,235. What is his standardized z-score?

We solve using z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score = $1235

μ is the population mean = $780

σ is the population standard deviation = $208

Hence,

z = 1235 - 780/208

z = 2.1875

Approximately to 3 decimal place = 2.188

(b) Is John’s rent an outlier?

No it isn't

(c) How high would the rent have to be to qualify as an outlier?

John’s rent would have to be higher than $1235
