Find the p-value corresponding to the hypothesis


Let x be a random variable representing the SAT math score of student. We may assume that x has a normal distribution and that the population standard deviation is 25. A large university claims the average SAT math score for incoming freshman is 650. You suspect that this claim is too high and decide to test the claim. You select a random sample of 75 incoming freshman and find the sample mean SAT math score to be 645. If you assume that the population mean is 650, find the P-value corresponding to the hypothesis that the average SAT score is less than 650 (i.e. left-tail test).
