To test H0: μ = 50 versus H1: μ < 50, a random sample of size n = 24 is obtained from a population that is known to be normally distributed with σ = 12a) If the sample is determined to be x = 47.1, compute the test statistic.b) If the researcher decides to test this hypothesis at α = 0.05 level of significance, determine the P-value.
